The series of online workshops on “countries and regions initiatives supporting zero emission road freight and logistics” jointly organised by EMEurope, ALICE and the Global MOU on ZE-MHDVs, with the support of the POLIS Network and of the ENTRANCE project continues in 2023. The first workshop of the year, co-organised by Rijkswaterstaat / Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management, features information about the Dutch strategies and funding measures, as well as examples of case studies to support zero emission road logistic. The aim is to bring together representatives of companies, research, cities and (national/regional) policy makers to share information on current and planned incentive schemes, especially about research and innovation (R&I) programmes to accelerate the transition towards zero-emission road freight transport and logistics in European regions and countries.

This workshop belongs to the series of online workshops on “countries and regions initiatives supporting zero emission road freight and logistics” jointly organised by EMEurope and ALICE, with the support of the POLIS Network and project ENTRANCE. In this workshop, organised by Piedmont Region and Finpiemonte S.p.A. and supported by the Ministry of University and Research (MUR), the Italian and Piedmontese policies, strategies and solutions for zero-emission mobility and logistics were presented. The goal was to bring together representatives from institutions (national, regional and urban), research and companies to discuss the state of the art, strategies and technological solutions to accelerate the transition to zero-emission mobility and logistics in European regions and countries.
In the first session of the workshop, the speakers reported on the national and regional framework, both at the political and industrial level. The second session of the workshop was dedicated to the interaction and debate with different operators, for a reflection on innovation for logistics.

As part of the series of online workshops on “countries and regions initiatives supporting zero emission road freight and logistics” jointly organised by EMEurope and ALICE, with the support of the POLIS Network and project ENTRANCE, Sweden was in focus. In this workshop, organised by the Lindholmen Science Park on behalf of Swedish Energy Agency (SWEA) in collaboration with the Sweden’s Innovation Agency (Vinnova) information about the Swedish Innovation System light house projects and strategies and funding opportunities was presented. The aim is to bring together representatives of companies, research, cities and (national/regional) policy makers to share information on current and planned incentive schemes, especially about research and innovation (R&I) programmes to accelerate the transition towards zero-emission road freight transport and logistics in European regions and countries.

EMEurope and ALICE, with the support of the POLIS Network and project ENTRANCE, are jointly organising a series of online workshops on “countries and regions initiatives supporting zero emission road freight and logistics” with the aim of bringing together representatives of companies, research, cities and (national/regional) policy makers to share information on current and planned incentive schemes, especially about research and innovation (R&I) programmes to accelerate the transition towards zero-emission road freight transport and logistics in European regions and countries.
During the launching workshop teaser information about the national and regional workshops will be shared and countries/regions and dates will be announced. Focus of the national and regional workshops will be road freight transport and logistics decarbonisation mainly through battery electric and fuel cell hydrogen solutions, but in some cases also addressing short-term transition opportunities like bio- and synthetic fuels.

The SURF project (Sustainable URban Freight) will guide city planners, business leaders and other freight decision-makers to develop a vision and strategy pathway for sustainable freight. The project is a collaboration with Environmental Defense Fund Europe (EDF Europe) taking place between April and December 2021.
Within its activities, SURF organised the SURF e-course on pathways for Zero-Emission Zones for freight (ZEZ-Fs) and POLIS is kindly inviting you to join.
This event was open to all POLIS members and non-members.
Date: 15 September 2021
Time: 15:00 – 16:30h (CET)

The EMEurope initiative is coming to end and during the EMEurope Final Conference we looked back at where we started and the achievements of the initiative, getting inspired for future activities. During the event, EMEurope representatives, guests and collaborating European platforms and networks gave their insights into how established collaborations could further contribute to the electrification of transport and mobility in Europe, discussing this and other topics with participants.
Thanks for joining us!

Mutual learning and exchange of information are an essential basis for the development and implementation of effective national, regional and local incentives for the electrification of transport and mobility. Therefore, the networks of EMEurope, ETP-ALICE and Polis, supported by the European Commission, have joined forces in organising an online event on the conditions, incentives and regulations for large scale electrification of Urban Freight and City Logistics. During this event, input presentations were provided from the complementary networks which served as launching pads for discussions in break-out sessions with the participants.
