Track: Transportation and Traffic

Abstract

There are four types of motorized vehicles in Indonesia. The enormous population is motorcycles, which have become Jakarta's primary transportation mode for daily activities. Currently, it is divided into two types: conventional and electric motorcycles. Conventionally, it runs on refined fuel oil. In terms of environment and sustainability, it leads to air pollution and a high fuel consumption rate. Besides those aspects, because of the raised fuel price, there is also a problem from the owner's perspective. Due to this condition, people have begun to move to an electric motorcycles. This study aims to make a comparison of life cycle cost (LCC) for both motorcycle types. Apart from this, a life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) is also carried out. Based on the Regulation of the Minister of Environment and Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia Number 01/2021, the impact that must be analyzed include cumulative energy demand (E), global warming potential (GWP), acidification potential (AP), eutrophication potential (EP), and ozone layer depletion potential (ODP). In this study, we focus more on GWP as a measure of carbon impact. Three scenarios will be analyzed: low, medium, and high mobility commuters in Jakarta. People can determine which type gives more benefits by analyzing and comparing LCC and LCIA for both types. As there is incentive policy from government for electric motorcycles, they have the best LCC compared to the conventional ones.
