The demonstrations will be made at an international event targeting electric vehicles researchers and industry in Gothenburg in 2025.
Emissions from the transport sector must be reduced at an increasing rate to meet sectoral targets and those set out within the Paris Agreement. This project involves the preparation of a demonstration project for solutions that can reduce climatic emissions from passenger and goods transport within the events industry.
Demonstrating climate-friendly transport solutions at events of this magnitude offers multiple opportunities. In addition to showcasing Swedish innovations to international publics, events also provide a window of opportunity for influencing travel behaviour since visitors are operating outside their everyday routines. Moreover, successful demonstrations can be scaled and diffused in the event industry, and across cities and regions within and beyond Sweden. The demonstration project will focus on an international conference on electromobility in Gothenburg in 2025.
The project identifies relevant solutions, creates a consortium of public and private actors to execute the demonstration, and produces a detailed project plan including procedures for the broader dissemination of knowledge and for scaling successful solutions.
