  • Abstract
    With the global environmental problems getting obvious, the low-carbon economy has become another focus of the human development. The transportation is regarded as the largest industry of the energy consumption, which would cause wide concern. Under the background of the low-carbon economy, it has great significance for passengers and transportation departments to study the competence of the transport mode in the passenger transport. In this paper, the intension of the competitiveness of the transport mode in the passenger transport is combined, various means of transport are compared in the areas of energy consumption, land occupation, carbon dioxide emissions, external costs, etc. The evaluation of the core competence of high-speed railway is taken as an example. An appraisal index system in different levels is established, and the feasibility of using fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method to evaluate of the competence of the transport mode is explored. Its core competence is analyzed by the composite score and sort of the various transport modes.
