This conference aimed to bring together leading experts, academics, practitioners and stakeholders from around the world to accelerate the transition to a greener, more sustainable future. MoST (Mobility Lab Stor Trondheim) held its own session at this conference under the theme Sustainable Mobility in Cities. Mahgol Afshari and Agnar Johansen led this session.
News of the week
Net-Zero Future 2024 Conference
Working group Mobility
The transport sector is the largest contributor to greenhouse gases. All forms of transport must become more sustainable, with green alternatives widely available. Through its projects, this working group will contribute to changing the way people and goods move. Key aspects include combining different forms of transport in a single journey, increasing the share of public transport and cycling, and developing the right incentives to drive the transition. Digitization will be an indispensable driving force for the modernization of the transport system, and opens up for seamless, smart and efficient solutions.
