Blockchain Meets Autonomous Electric Taxis: Innovating for Security and Efficiency for Sustainable Future

초록

The rapid evolution of autonomous vehicles (AV) and advancements in renewable energy technologies present a unique opportunity to redefine urban transportation. This research explores the integration of autonomous electric taxis (AET) with blockchain technology to address key operational challenges and enhance the efficiency and sustainability of urban mobility. Our research focuses on three critical aspects: the selection of AET, the optimization of charging station locations, and the development of secure, transparent reservation and payment mechanisms through blockchain. The findings suggest that integrating blockchain with AET systems mitigates existing operational inefficiencies and propels the transportation sector toward a more sustainable future. This research contributes to the ongoing discourse on smart cities by demonstrating blockchain’s practical applications and benefits in autonomous transportation, potentially influencing global urban transportation policies and practices.
