Deriving a (least-cost) action plan for promoting alternative automotive technologies and alternative fuels

01.10.2008 - 31.03.2011
Research funding project
The core objective is to derive effective least-cost policy strategies to achieve a significant increase in innovative alternative fuels (AF) and corresponding alternative more efficient automotive technologies (AAMT) to head towards a sustainable individual & public transport system. The heart of this project is an investigation of about 80 recently implemented successful case studies of pilot projects for marketing AF & AAMT from all over Europe and beyond. Furthermore, prospective scenarios on the future deployment of AF & AAMT will be developed, showing how to meet EU targets with least-cost for EU citizens based on efficient & effective policy mixes. The major output will be a detailed action plan for practical implementation within Europe as a whole as well as for specific regions & countries, describing step-by-step how to transfer & disseminate the most promising current local initiatives for AF & AAMT and how to accompany them with effective & efficient national or EU policies.
