Project description
Implementing climate actions for the hard-to-abate sectors
The project, DTImplement, brings together stakeholder groups from around the world to tackle carbon emissions stemming from the shipping, aviation and heavy-duty freight sectors – the transport sub-sectors for which emissions reductions in line with a net zero pathway are particularly challenging. The stakeholder groups bring together national governments, industry representatives and intergovernmental bodies, spanning the global North and South and covering many of the world’s largest economies. Each group will identify policy pathways that are well suited to help scale up solutions capable to move forward with the decarbonisation of each of the three focus sectors.
Objective
In the context of this project, the ITF will set up fora for EU member states, OECD member countries and all key transport stakeholders to identify transport R&I priorities of common interest. This will help to support the transfer of innovative transport and mobility solutions into concrete policy actions and create a favourable environment for the implementation of sustainable and inclusive transport policies.
The project will focus especially on innovative transport and mobility solutions that are capable to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions of CO2 and local pollutants in the transport sector while being socially fair, fostering social inclusiveness and economic progress. The project will gather quantitative information allowing to characterise these solutions, it will consider barriers for their development and adoption and it will identify policy instruments available to effectively overcome them, leveraging on data, experiences and lessons that involve countries and other stakeholders leading the action on climate change mitigation and the achievement of sustainable development goals.
