TRANSPORT SUSTAINABILITY

AND DECARBONISATION

This theme encompasses a comprehensive examination of the intersection between decarbonisation strategies and the evolution of mobility systems, emphasising the pivotal role of economic analysis and data-driven methodologies. It aims to shed light on how behavioural economics, policy incentives, and technological advancements can collectively foster a sustainable transportation ecosystem. By integrating empirical modelling and energy market analysis, we seek to provide actionable insights for policymakers, industry stakeholders, and communities, guiding the transition towards environmentally friendly and economically viable mobility solutions.

In particular, we focus on:

  • Energy transitions 
  • Emission reductions 
  • Transport electrification (eg. wireless charging) 
  • Low carbon travel (e.g H2, electrification in road, rail, sea and air) 
  • Shared transport (e.g. MaaS)  
  • Mass rapid transit  
  • Public transport (bus, rail, ferry)
  • Land Use planning & Transport  
  • Transit Orientated Development 
  • Transport economics and appraisal 
  • Willingness to pay
