Abstract

Government policies to curb the Covid-19 pandemic have drastically changed the pattern of energy demand worldwide. Closed borders and international travel bans have changed consumption patterns and reduced transport use, thus significantly lowering carbon emissions in several countries, particularly urban areas in the Southeast Asia region. Based on these conditions, the study aimed to analyze carbon dioxide emissions generated by the transportation sector in the Special Region of Yogyakarta during the pandemic. The required data, serving as research objects, included fuel consumption, fuel sales, transportation sector activities, road sections, and road density derived from the Transportation Department's traffic cameras and BPS-Statistics Indonesia. Google Form was also used to collect information for fuel consumption pattern analysis. The Covid-19 - Google Global Mobility Report was used to map trends of change in the respondents' activity and mobility. The results showed that, from 2019 to 2020, the fuel consumption decreased by 74 kL/year and the CO2 emissions by 169,865 tons/year. Government policies, including the large-scale social activity restrictions implemented for the first time in the region, have influenced community mobility trends across different categories of places.
