Modern grids aim at enabling modern functionalities (e.g., self‐healing systems, smart transportation systems, sustainable energy networks, and multi‐dimensional community of intelligence agents) and integrating smart technologies in the body of multi‐energy networks (MENs) aiming to supply more reliable and efficient energy. In this context, transportation networks have recently experienced significant growth in terms of vehicle systems, physical infrastructures, public transit system management, autonomous vehicles, traveler information systems, and traffic management, to name a few. In this area, emerging new intelligent and hybrid energy systems, along with the substantial development in energy conversion technologies, as well as increasing demand for secure, comfortable, and reliable vehicle systems declare the fact that modern grids need to include intelligent interconnected transportation systems. Herein, diverse and intelligent transportation devices play a pivotal role in meeting the growing demand for vehicle systems that can be operated in a collaborative manner to make the modern structure of the energy network more efficient, reliable, resilient, and stable. However, how intelligent transportation systems (ITSs) can be interconnectedly operated for maintaining the sustainability of cleaner modern MENs is a key question that needs to be addressed in deep detail.

In recent years, the growing need for all carriers of energy has driven energy networks to be reconstructed in a way to effectively match energy supply and demand [1]. In this transformation, grid modernization is introduced to pave the realization of required changes that make the energy structure cleaner, more efficient, affordable, sustainable, flexible, stable, and secure than the previous paradigm [2]. One of the prominent features of modernized energy networks is the adoption of renewable energy sources (RESs) in energy generation premises [3]. This evolution is intended to facilitate the decarbonization plans for an energy transition toward a carbon‐free and green energy structure. However, such a development was not only accompanied by economic and environmental benefits, but also critical challenges have emerged, especially concerning uncertain outputs of RESs [4]. Multi‐energy systems along with other energy storage, management, and energy trading technologies are proposed to address such challenges in the modern energy grid [5]. However, effectively responding to such concerns requires more than just using the mentioned solutions. Indeed, dynamic energy balancing is more difficult from the network viewpoint when it is equipped with 100% RESs given the stochastic nature of energy production. In such a circumstance, interconnecting different sectors of energy grids can make an appropriate multi‐energy coupling that supports the whole structure of the system in continuous energy serving. One of these important sectors is transportation. The transportation network encompasses different parts such as power lines, air routes, railways, and road networks that possess diverse energy‐consumed systems like electric vehicles (EVs), buses, boats, etc. [6]. By including various energy‐dependent devices, the transportation network plays a vital role in energy interactions across the grid. As future energy networks are planned to be eco‐friendly infrastructure with fully clean energy production [7], the transportation sector is also not exempt from this green economy movement. Hence, exploiting carbon‐free energy systems is necessary for realizing a green transportation network. In this regard, recent advances in the technology of multi‐carrier energy devices offer great opportunities for generating, storing, and converting different carriers of energy to each other [8]. Therefore, the operation of coupled intelligent transportation networks and multi‐carrier energy units can procure appropriate conditions for implementing net‐zero emission plans and realizing a green transportation network. This issue highlights the necessity for developing the application of multi‐energy systems to their usage in the transportation network. This chapter aims to further clarify various dimensions of this necessity.
Recent years have witnessed a considerable rise in energy demand along with the rapid development in the technologies of smart devices for smart grids. The deployment of intelligent systems is not only limited to the residential sector, but also the transportation premise has benefited in controlling a variety of energy interactions. Such evolutions have driven the system to face huge volumes of data generated by smart devices across the grid. This data is taken into account as valuable information for the decision‐making process of the transportation network. How the mentioned information needs to be used for managing various processes as well as completing different duties is the main reason for creating transportation management systems (TMSs). The TMS is from the area of transportation that sets up for improving flexibility, load optimization, and effective route planning [9]. The utilization of machine learning (ML) techniques along with artificial intelligence (AI) has made TMSs more intelligent, enabling them to achieve accurate performance. The emergence of intelligent devices in recent decades has resulted in the development of diverse information systems for planning, mapping, routing, and logistics. The exploitation of such systems has significantly increased the capabilities of data processing leading to the appearance of intelligent transportation systems (ITSs) [10]. Indeed, ITS is a system with the ability to take appropriate decisions for different states of the transportation network using the data from vehicles with smart devices. The received data from the sensors and intelligent devices are monitored by ITSs to extract useful information that can be effectively used by businesses and governments for taking purposeful decisions. The used feedback mechanism enables ITSs to continuously improve the performance of different systems across the transportation network. ITSs consist of a set of subsystems to achieve such improvements that are indicated in Figure 1.1[11].
As one of the ITSs’ subsystems, intelligent public transportation systems are for controlling the public transportation network, maintaining the performance of the transportation structure, and providing up‐to‐date information regarding the network operation and trips for the decision‐makers and passengers [12]. As a context‐aware solution to effectively control and manage the traffic challenges of the transportation network, the intelligent traffic control and management system has been developed that uses real‐time data coming from predictive analytics as well as connected road infrastructure [13]. The intelligent parking management system relies on satisfying the requirements of the Internet of things (IoT) device management, vehicle management, and user information management for managing vehicle parking [14]. The intelligent traffic information system is responsible for effectively monitoring traffic by using IoT to create interoperability among heterogeneous interconnected devices to avoid vehicle traffic congestion [15]. The application of IoT is not just limited to the mentioned ITSs’ subsystems, but its integration with AI also procures appropriate platforms for safety management and emergency conditions. Given the significant role of pavement maintenance in megacities, the intelligent pavement management system pursues the key goal of scheduling road reviews as well as managing complaints [16]. Indeed, such systems can be most efficient in improving management capability, driving economic growth, and supporting the sustainability of the transportation network when accurate data is available from sensors. In this regard, different applications of ITSs can be classified into four main classes that are illustrated in Figure 1.2[17].

All presented applications for ITSs in Figure 1.2 are based on using the collected data from vehicles aiming to improve the transportation process, facilitate public transportation services, and increase driver safety. Thus, ITSs not only ease the decision‐making process for government authorities, but they can also manage and control planning for the transportation network in an appropriate manner, resulting in efficient road management, better driver experience, and a proper degree of passenger comfort [9].
Figure 1.2 Main applications of ITSs.

The described applications of ITSs highlight their undeniable place in the future energy network infrastructure. The rise in transport demand has substantially increased for different types of transportation services in recent years. In this respect, vehicles with traditional fossil fuels were mainly responsible for satisfying the transport demand in the transportation network. However, considerable advancements in the technology of clean energy systems have changed the mentioned trend in the usage of fossil fuel‐based devices in the transportation sector. The environmental problems caused by traditional systems have driven the transportation sector to operate carbon‐free devices in both personal vehicles and public transport services. Moreover, recent endeavors have been focused on significantly declining the carbon emissions in the transportation premise and actualizing green transportation more than ever before. However, rapid developments in energy technologies do not accept such a reduction degree and define ambitious goals in constructing zero‐emission transportation networks. Therefore, the modernization of the transportation network is accompanied by realizing 100% RES goals in the grid modernization process. However, uncertainties in clean energy production by RESs have procured difficult conditions for making such decarbonization plans reliably implementable in the practice. Indeed, most clean energy production systems rely on climate‐dependent systems whose outputs vary simultaneously with climate changes. Hence, incorporating RESs in the transportation sector donates the challenge of their uncontrollable energy generation, which is already a great concern for energy networks. In this circumstance, although ITSs can pave the successful adoption of diverse technologies for providing an acceptable degree of safety and services in the transportation network, reliable exploitation of the transportation sector still remains a considerable challenge when planning to realize zero‐emission goals through full usage of RESs. Herein, given the great achievements of deploying multi‐energy systems in boosting the ability of energy grids in coping with the intermittences of RESs, their utilization in the transportation network can open new doors for this sector to act most flexibly in making green transportation. Indeed, multi‐energy networks offer a set of multi‐energy interactions using different technologies such as power‐to‐X to enable renewable‐dominant structures for supplying energy. The aforementioned benefits are a key portion of opportunities that the transportation grid with RESs requires to keep its sustainability in the green economy. Therefore, the considerable advantages of multi‐energy systems in easing the adoption of a high level of RESs highlight the necessity of interconnected exploitation of the transportation network with multi‐energy grids. Indeed, coupling them is an essential step for facilitating the implementation of decarbonization plans as well as realizing green transportation infrastructure.
Recent evolutions in technology development along with the rapid growth in multi‐energy demand have affected different sectors across the globe. The transportation network has also not been spared from these transformations and has witnessed widespread changes in different layers of transportation management. One of the affected parts is ITSs which are developed in a way to improve synergies while promoting interoperability between various participants of the transportation network. In this respect, ITSs cannot satisfy the modernization expectations of transportation alone. On the other hand, multi‐energy systems render attractive privileges for utilizing RESs and efficiently constructing green transportation. Thus, there is a great necessity for coupling ITSs and multi‐energy networks to easily reach the grid modernization goals. This chapter highlights this necessity by mostly focusing on the grid modernization viewpoint. Moreover, it also clarified the different applications of ITSs in the transportation network.

The most significant issue facing contemporary society is population growth. The demand to consume various resources grows even more as the population grows. For stability and forward movement, the world has to guarantee dependable and stable access to its basic requirements. At first glance, food, energy, and water are the three basic needs that are thought to be necessary for a society. The environment must be destroyed in order to fulfill these systemic needs.
The society and organizations that make policies give these three demands a lot of consideration. One of society's fundamental needs is social welfare, although it receives less attention. One of the main pillars of social welfare is transportation. Unreasonable population expansion, inadequate planning for the construction of roads, and an unchecked increase in the number of automobiles have all caused issues for human society [1].
The development of technology opened up a new area for the planning and redesign of conventional systems [2]. Redesign and special look at the changes in traditional systems to save energy consumption were applied and implemented in large networks such as electricity. In the power system, the coordination between different energy carriers led to significant economic benefits [3]. The transportation system made a move toward redesign to enhance its conditions as one of the most significant energy consumers and generators of greenhouse gases. Along with energy and greenhouse gas emissions issues, the traditional transportation system struggles with car congestion due to its inadequate infrastructure. Green transportation (GT) was proposed as a solution to these issues and as the cornerstone of the new transportation system, notwithstanding these issues and the fundamental requirement to rethink the traditional transportation system [4]. The following objectives and problems have been addressed in this chapter, which is centered on the GT system:
Discussing the development and expansion of the transportation system.
Population growth and the issues it brings are studied statistically.
Vehicle traffic as a consequence of the community's growing population and people's time wastage.
Pollution of the environment and greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation system.
Effects and advantages of GT versus traditional transportation systems.
Issues that prevent the growth of GT.
Effect of new technologies on GT's acceleration.
Intelligent transportation systems and methods for connection between various components.
One of the biggest problems brought on by the use of traditional transport systems is global warming. Without changing the current system's structure, every attempt to reduce transportation density will have a negative impact on both the general satisfaction of society and the transportation industry [5]. In Ref. [6], it is investigated how increasing the usage of fossil fuels puts both the global environment and global society at irreversible harm. It is recommended that the global economy shift toward carbon reduction so that the rise in global temperature does not exceed 2°. There are serious challenges in reducing carbon with the goal of lowering temperatures. The use of renewable energy sources is one of these difficulties. In order to overcome these obstacles, there must be broad international cooperation. As a result, the United Nations member states decided to work together in this direction [7].
The Green Climate Fund was formed in 2010 to help finance this objective. The big businesses then started to reduce their carbon emissions. Businesses are encouraged to invest in this area, and transportation companies strive to act in a less carbon‐intensive manner, thanks to the assistance of the international community and the adoption of legislation [8]. The ultimate purpose of the transportation system is to make it easier for people to go about their normal, everyday lives without wasting time. Another major objective of better transportation is to move commodities more efficiently while having less of a negative impact on the environment [9]. In light of these circumstances, the world community has set sustainability in transportation as a goal. This means finding ways to meet societal requirements while also protecting the environment and future generations' access to resources [10]. Several governments have modified their policies to solve this problem and are working to achieve sustainable transportation [11]. Despite government attempts to promote sustainable transportation, the use of conventional and fossil fuels and the resulting greenhouse gas emissions have created an unstable environment [12]. One of the key causes of declining societal health and environmental destruction is the emission of greenhouse gases [13]. The use of clean fuels and the electrification of cars rather than the use of fossil fuels in the transportation sector can work to address these concerns and problems [14, 15]. The use of sustainable transport was recognized, and suggestions were made specifically for public transportation [16]. There are still some unknowns despite all the recommendations and alternative solutions to the transportation issues. Researchers recognized the urgent need to develop a GT system after assessing the severity of the system's issues. A system of GT is one in which all modes of transportation cause the least amount of damage to the environment and to people's health [4]. These concepts and topics are also covered in this chapter:
Investigated the development of transportation from the invention of the wheel to modern green and smart transportation.
Problems brought on by population growth, such as the escalation of traffic and the contamination of the environment.
Agreements and treaties established in relation to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Challenges that need to be overcome to implement GT.
Technology advancements that are practical as well as new are speeding up the development of greener transportation.
The remainder of this chapter first reviews and presents the history of the transportation system from the age of the invention of the wheel to the present, and then lists the issues and difficulties that the current transportation faces as a result of population increase. After reviewing the international accords that have been put forth to address the issues of GT and global warming, the GT system is described and its difficulties are looked at. Multiple energy networks and GT's effects are investigated. The methods for implementing GT are offered after the definition of the GT system. The newest technology utilized by the GT system is discussed and presented at the end.
Studying the history and current state of transportation systems is crucial for researching and evaluating various vehicle types. The welfare of society is considerably increased by transportation systems. The movement of people and products both vertically and horizontally may be referred to as transportation. When it comes to vertical transportation, equipment is utilized for lifting tasks like removing objects from atop structures, metal from mines, and other things. The Shadow apparatus, which was used in Mesopotamia to lift water, is one of the historical examples of a vertical transportation system [17–20].
The invention of the first wheel in 3500 BC can be regarded as the start of horizontal transportation [21]. Around 2000 BC, small chariots developed in Syria or northern Mesopotamia and were the first horizontal wheeled means of transportation, which swiftly swept throughout the Middle East [22]. Although it was primarily utilized for military purposes, this kind of chariot was also used for travel and hunting. Around 1550 BC, chariot use spread throughout Greece as a result of trade and migration. Chariot use led to the development of roadways, which were primarily tied to the building of bridges across rivers and streams [22]. Horses were utilized to pull chariots throughout this time period, and they were regarded as the most crucial component of the transportation system [3].
Up until the year 1400 AD, when Europeans invented the horse‐drawn wagon, chariots were still in use [23]. James Watt's invention of the steam engine in 1769 sparked a massive revolution in both industry and daily life [24]. Boats and steamships were among the first modes of transportation to make significant strides using Watt steam engines in 1783 [25]. Locomotives were the first land vehicles to benefit from steam engines. The locomotive was unveiled in 1801, and its “Salamanca” commercial counterpart was conceived and constructed in 1812 [25]. A more advanced version of this locomotive with eight wagons was shown two years later. Thirty tons of coal could be moved by this locomotive at a speed of 4 miles per hour [25]. The first air transport method was the hot air balloon, which was invented and developed in 1783 [26].
The invention of the bicycle in the 1790s marked the beginning of the personal vehicle age [25]. In 1886, the first motorized vehicle was created, and people started using them [27]. A century or so later, in 1980, a more advanced model of the automobile without a driver was invented [28]. Parallel to this progress, motorized airplanes first flew in 1903; electric subways began operating in 1890; cruise ships appeared in 2002; and lastly, from 2010 onward, electric automobiles have significantly increased horizontal transportation and impacted people's lives [29]. Figure 2.1 depicts the development and growth of transportation based on the history as described.

There are several issues with the traditional transportation system. These issues are caused by an increase in the number of vehicles, a lack of infrastructure, and facilities within the system, as well as factors relating to the local environment and society. The spread of urbanization and the rise in population are just two problems that have a negative impact on the traditional transportation system. The transportation system has also imposed problems on the environment, such as the rise in traffic and the release of greenhouse gases. Below, these concerns and issues are discussed in more detail.
