The study is based on an analysis of the historic situation, based on an input-output model (MULTIREG) that was used to assess the effect of developments in the RES sector on other economic sectors. With regard to future developments, the analysis employs a RES-sector bottom-up model (GREEN-X) that was designed to simulate the effect of RES support policies to 2030. In order to calculate future economic effects, two well-established, independent macroeconomic models (NEMESIS and ASTRA) were used in parallel and their results were compared for maximum reliability. Both the approach and the results have been peer-reviewed. 176 The Transport White Paper ‘Roadmap to a Single European Transport Area- Towards a competitive and resource efficient transport system’ sets as an objective to reduce the GHG emissions of transport by 60 % in 2050. 177 Out of the 1 064 696 enterprises which existed in the transport sector in 2008, a large majority belonged to the atomised road transport sector (600 000 to road freight transport and 325 728 to road passenger transport). 178 Source: Eurostat - National Accounts (table 6.1). This figure does not include own account transport which corresponds to the transport services that firms in all sectors provide for themselves (16 % of total activity in tkm). The construction and to a large extent maintenance of transport infrastructure and of transport means (i.e. road vehicles, ships, trains) is not included either. 179European Commission (2010), EU energy trends to 2030 — Update 2009: http://ec.europa.eu/energy/observatory/trends_2030/doc/trends_to_2030_update_2009.pdf. 180The transport sector is a dynamic sector from an economic point of view, which has managed to attain rapid productivity growth. Annual labour productivity in the transport services sector has grown more than in the rest of the economy. The COMPETE study shows that the sectors that have recorded the highest levels of productivity growth are maritime and air transport. COMPETE. ‘Analysis of the contribution of transport policies to the competitiveness of the EU economy and comparison with the USA’: http://ec.europa.eu/transport/wcm/infrastructure/studies/2006_10_compete.zip. 181Such as the introduction of the European Railway Traffic Management System (ERTMS) in railways or the Single European Sky Air Traffic Management Research (SESAR) programme in aviation, which replace more labour intensive means of traffic control and management. Modern communication tools may reduce the need or the desire for travelling as well. 182European strategy on clean and energy efficient vehicles (COM(2010) 186): http://eur lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=COM:2010:0186:FIN:EN:PDF. 183‘The 2006 turnover for DB Schenker totalled 17 billion euro, 3.8 of which stemmed from rail freight and combined transport.

Le Monde 12.6.2010, page 2. 185 A recent agreement between Lufthansa and British-Airways/Iberia foresees the transfer of British Midland to the latter. 186 Or more exactly by the impossibility so far of reaching an agreement over the restrictive US national ownership clauses. 187See ‘The corporate geography of global container terminal operators’. Theo Notteboom and Jean-Paul Rodrigue. 188For example ‘The ETF wants as a first step a moratorium on the liberalisation of transport modes since it only replaces public monopolies by private monopolies or leads to fragmentation and destructive competition to the detriment of workers’. Selected resolutions adopted at the ETF (European Transport Workers Federation) 2009 Congress — Ponta Delgada, 27-29 May 2009. 189In aviation, loss of competition will be fought typically through the compulsory transfer of slots free of charge, to be distributed among new entrants or existing competitors. 190The opportunities that the internet provides to identify and consolidate demand for public transport and to provide tailored solutions, such as taxis, microbuses and coaches, are just starting to be explored. 191IRU press release: http://www.iru.org/index/en_media_press_pr/code.973/lang.en. 192 IATA financial forecast December 2011 www.iata.orga/economics 193ERM Quarterly, issue 1, Spring 2010. 194 See the report of the Joint European Group CER—ETF ‘Freight business restructuring and its impact on employment’ of February 2009, funded with the support of DG EMPL/F/1, Page 65. 195About 50 % of foreign seafarers on EU-flagged ships come from the Philippines; other important labour supplier countries are the Ukraine and Russia (EMSA). 196A 2007 study, ‘Rail training 2020. Training needs and offers in the European railway area. The next 10 - 15 years’, on the evolution of skills and training in the railway field provides insights that can also be relevant for training in other modes of transport. http://ec.europa.eu/transport/rail/studies/doc/2007_rail_training_2020.pdf. 197Council Directive 2009/13/EC as shown in: http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=CELEX:32009L0013:EN:NOT following the agreement between ETF and ECSA.
