Abstract
In Colombia, road transportation consumes 44% of the overall energy available. This sector is considered a great consumer of oil-based-fuels and the least efficient productive sector. It was identified that technological and operational strategies like eco-driving enhance the performance of vehicles. A set of methodologies were implemented based on the measurement of energy consumption and emissions of vehicles, from which theoretical and experimental models have been performed. Besides, the evaluation of eco-driving as an energy efficiency strategy for Light Duty Vehicles in Colombia was carried out by conducting tests in a chassis dynamometer, based on the procedures described by the CFR 40 of the United States of America and COPANT. In addition, fuel consumption of a Light Duty Vehicle was measured and it was possible to identify the potential of eco driving as it was achieved an increase up to 20% in the energy performance of the vehicle.
