TDA SIDE EVENT AT THE ITF 2021 SUMMIT
DISCUSSION: BARRIERS AND SOLUTIONS TO ACCELERATED TRANSPORT DECARBONISATION - ZERO EMISSION VEHICLES
SESSION OVERVIEW
Tackling climate change requires accelerating action, but in the transport sector the problem is the slow implementation of the many low carbon transport solutions available. This event will facilitate an exchange between key actors (energy utility, charging infrastructure service provider, electric freight vehicle manufacturer and local authority) each with a different perspective on the barriers and solutions to accelerating the deployment of electric freight vehicles.
An interactive brainstorming will allow all participants to contribute to identifying the proposed solutions. The event outcomes will contribute to the future work of the Transport Decarbonisation Alliance.
