GHG-TransPoRD: objectives Mi Main objectives: To support the EU in defining a feasible research and policy strategy for GHG reductions of transport that fits and contributes to the overall GHG reduction targets of the EU. To propose GHG reduction targets for transport as a whole as well as for each transport mode. Specific objectives: Identification of promising and feasible measures (i.e. technology pathways and policies). Techno-economic analysis of details of promising measures to estimate effectiveness of GHG reductions as well as technical feasibility and economic cost and affordability. Formulation of scenarios consisting of both selected technology pathways and transport policies that would achieve GHG reduction targets for 2020 ( -20 or -30%) and 2050 (-60 to - 80%). Linking the promising scenarios with a suggestion for an EU research strategy. Communicate with stakeholders about project findings and most recent advancements in particular of new technologies to have a platform of mutual understanding. Seite 3
GHG-TransPoRD: research concept Backcasting from policies/measures to an R&D strategy and GHG reduction targets of transport considering also the current R&D strategy. Synchronised consideration of transport policies and technologies, which together are called measures in the context of this project, to generate an R&D strategy. Focus on two time horizons, i.e. 2020 and 2050, for the formulation of the R&D strategy and GHG reduction targets of transport. A mix of qualitative/quantitative desk research with advanced modeling approaches to assess the impacts of analysed measures. A communication strategy that enables to take into account the research strategies developed by the Technology Platforms and Joint Technology Initiatives related to transport as well as to communicate and exchange the findings of the GHG-TransPoRD project with stakeholders.

GHG-TransPoRD: timing and stakeholder involvement Start: October 1st 2009, duration 24 months Stakeholder Council of 12+ persons Interviews with stakeholders Four workshops (WS) and Final Conference WS1 (06/10): measures in road and rail transport (June 17th) WS2 (06/10): measures in air and maritime transport (June 18th) WS3 (11/10): techno-economic details of measures (e.g. costs and learning curves) WS4 (06/11): integrated scenarios of transport policies and R&D strategies Final Conference (09/11) Cluster workshops e.g. with TOSCA, REACT (7FP as well) Seite 8
Expected result of GHG-TransPoRD Suggestion of an integrated strategy for the EU that links R&D policy for transport with a transport policy strategy such that the European GHG reduction targets for 2020 and 2050 can be met also for transport. Integrated view to suggest consistent: Reduction targets for transport R&D strategy Transport policy strategy Seite 9
