Now it must turn this commitment into action. Ensuring transport contributes its fair share to these emissions cuts appears to be a near-insurmountable challenge. \nIn Europe\, transport’s oil dependency makes cars\, trucks\, airplanes and ships the single biggest source of greenhouse gas emissions. Road transport is a particular problem and responsible for 73% of total transport emissions\, because Europe’s 290 million road vehicles are over 90% reliant on oil. \nThere is a wide range of low-emission transport alternatives that can alleviate oil dependence and slash emissions in road transport: everything from batteries and ethanol to more efficient engines and smarter transport systems. But how soon can these solutions be scaled up to achieve significant emissions reductions? \nThe transition to low-emission transport can only be achieved through cooperation among carmakers\, consumers\, energy companies and technology providers\, as well as national and EU regulators. Binding targets to reduce the carbon intensity of road transport fuels and promote the use of renewable energy by 2030 have been set. However\, the recent European Commission’s “Clean Energy Package for All” proposes a phase out of conventional biofuels — the biggest source of renewable energy currently in transport. Is the 2030 objective now unrealistic? What solutions will national governments devise to meet emission cuts? \nThis event will gather high-level EU and national policymakers\, industry representatives\, energy experts and environment groups for a frank conversation on how to rev up transport emissions reductions efforts\, without wrecking European mobility and competitiveness. \nQuestions to be addressed at the event include: \n\nWhat transport technologies will help Europe speed up emissions reductions?\nWhat are the benefits and drawbacks of these technologies?\nShould national governments or the private sector take the lead in the transition to low emission transport solutions?\nCan policy makers assure the contributions of low emission transport energy such as electricity and ethanol are maximised?\n\nFor the full agenda\, please click here. \nTo register\, please click here. \n  \nSource: Politico Europe \n  URL:https://erticonetwork.com/event/politico-decarbonising-europes-transport-sector/ LOCATION:Concert Noble\, Rue d'Arlon 82\, Brussels\, 1000\, Belgium CATEGORIES:Clean ITS,Policy & Strategy GEO:50.8423215;4.3735137 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Concert Noble Rue d'Arlon 82 Brussels 1000 Belgium;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Rue d'Arlon 82:geo:4.3735137,50.8423215 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20161018 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20161020 DTSTAMP:20260428T212247 CREATED:20161010T085417Z LAST-MODIFIED:20161010T085417Z UID:10011483-1476748800-1476921599@erticonetwork.com SUMMARY:2nd Major eafip Event on Innovation Procurement DESCRIPTION:The second major eafip event will take place in the National Centre for Public Administration and Local Government (EKDDA) in Athens\, Greece on 18th and 19th October 2016.

The 21st TAP conference will take place in Lyon (France) with the aim of bringing together scientists\, international experts\, users and decision makers to share their contributions on the current scientific knowledge of air pollution due to emissions from transport systems. Public authorities and state or local government agencies with jurisdiction over transport or air quality\, community groups\, operators\, commercial carriers\, nonprofit and other business entities are invited to participate and are welcome. \nTransport sectors play a strategic and major role in the global market and fast changing economic and societal frame. Technologies\, policies and citizen behaviors must be continually adapted towards the reduction of fossil energy and the increasing demand for mobility etc. \nThe 21st International Transport and Air Pollution Conference\, organized by the French Institute of Science and Technology for Transport\, Development and Networks (IFSTTAR) – Mobility\, Planning and Environment Department (AME) will take place from May 24th (8:30 am) to 26th\, 2016 (6:00 pm) in Lyon (France) at the Ecole Normale Supérieure (ENS of Lyon). Its aim is to create a stage for exchanging the latest research results and sharing the advanced research methods and technologies. \nThe aim of TAP 2016 will be “Towards energy transition and cleaner transport” and their implication to air quality\, with an emphasis on the programme topics. \nhttp://tap2016.sciencesconf.org/ URL:https://erticonetwork.com/event/21st-international-transport-and-air-pollution-conference/ LOCATION:Unnamed Venue\, Lyon\, France CATEGORIES:Clean ITS GEO:45.764043;4.835659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20160518 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20160521 DTSTAMP:20260428T212247 CREATED:20160517T072318Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160517T072614Z UID:10011434-1463529600-1463788799@erticonetwork.com SUMMARY:ITF Transport Summit DESCRIPTION:http://2016.itf-oecd.org/ URL:https://erticonetwork.com/event/itf-transport-summit/ LOCATION:Unnamed Venue\, Leipzig\, Germany CATEGORIES:Clean ITS GEO:51.3396955;12.3730747 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20160427 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20160430 DTSTAMP:20260428T212247 CREATED:20160108T110120Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160108T110120Z UID:10011374-1461715200-1461974399@erticonetwork.com SUMMARY:8th European Conference on Sustainable Cities & Towns DESCRIPTION:The 8th European Conference on Sustainable Cities & Towns (link is external)\, held from 27-29 April 2016 in the Basque Country\, takes place at a crucial time – following the UN Summit for the Adoption of the Post-2015 Development Agenda and the Climate Conference of the Parties (COP 21) in Paris\, which is expected to result in a post-Kyoto framework to address climate change. \nhttp://conferences.sustainablecities.eu/basquecountry2016/ URL:https://erticonetwork.com/event/8th-european-conference-on-sustainable-cities-towns/ LOCATION:Unnamed Venue\, Bilbao\, Spain CATEGORIES:Clean ITS GEO:43.2630126;-2.9349852 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20160323 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20160326 DTSTAMP:20260428T212247 CREATED:20160108T100931Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160108T100931Z UID:10011363-1458691200-1458950399@erticonetwork.com SUMMARY:5th International Conference on Smart Cities and Green ICT Systems DESCRIPTION:SMARTGREENS 2016 will be held in conjunction with CSEDU 2016\, WEBIST 2016\, CLOSER 2016\, VEHITS 2016 and IoTBD 2016. \nhttp://www.smartgreens.org/ URL:https://erticonetwork.com/event/5th-international-conference-on-smart-cities-and-green-ict-systems/ LOCATION:Unnamed Venue\, Rome\, Italy CATEGORIES:Clean ITS GEO:41.9027835;12.4963655 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Brussels:20150930T110000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Brussels:20150930T120000 DTSTAMP:20260428T212247 CREATED:20150806T075730Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150806T080009Z UID:10011340-1443610800-1443614400@erticonetwork.com SUMMARY:Webinar: From Technology to Mobility Solutions for Cities: Cooperative ITS DESCRIPTION:Viajeo PLUS and the Compass 4D project  are jointly organising a webinar on Cooperative ITS (C-ITS). \nAGENDA: \nYanying Li\, ERTICO ITS Europe: Introduction \nGert Blom\, City of Helmond\, The Netherland:  City’s experiences on deployment of C-ITS: benefits\, challenges and commitments \nZeljko Jeftic\, International Road Union (IRU) Project: Users’ acceptance on C-ITS \n  \nRegister here \nFor more information\, visit viajeoplus.eu URL:https://erticonetwork.com/event/webinar-from-technology-to-mobility-solutions-for-cities-cooperative-its/ CATEGORIES:Clean ITS ORGANIZER;CN="Unnamed Organizer":MAILTO:y.li@mail.ertico.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Brussels:20150611T060000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Brussels:20150612T150000 DTSTAMP:20260428T212247 CREATED:20150521T142428Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150521T142428Z UID:10011171-1434002400-1434121200@erticonetwork.com SUMMARY:International Conference on Electromobility DESCRIPTION:Oslo\, Norway \nElectric vehicles (EVs) are a hot issue in Europe among transport policy makers\, manufacturers and users. In Norway generous incentives have created the largest market for electric cars in the world\, with a market share of 12\,5 percent of new vehicle sales in 2014 – and rapidly increasing i 2015. This electromobility conference will present the status for electric vehicles in Norway and Europe\, policy and incentives – and discuss the road ahead. \nWe present results from the EU research project COMPETT (Competitive Electric Town Transport). Some important research questions: How can EVS come into use to a greater degree? What are the most likely niches for EVs? What kind of EVs can most easily become alternatives to internal combustion engine vehicles? \nFor more information\, click here URL:https://erticonetwork.com/event/international-conference-on-electromobility/ CATEGORIES:Clean ITS ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://erticonetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/images_Compett_-_bilde_topp-2.jpg_Stort.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Brussels:20150511T060000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Brussels:20150511T150000 DTSTAMP:20260428T212247 CREATED:20150511T141929Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150511T141929Z UID:10011159-1431324000-1431356400@erticonetwork.com SUMMARY:Global Conference on Global Warming 2015 DESCRIPTION:CERTH along with the Academy of Athens are co-organising the 2015 Global Conference on Global Warming (GCGW-15) in Athens on May 24-27\, 2015. \nThe GCGW-15 is a multi–disciplinary international conference on global warming and climate change issues and potential solutions.
