Add to Calendar September 18, 2023 1:45 pm September 18, 2023 2:30 pm America/New_York Road to Success: Picking Up the Rate of Electrification in the Heavy-Duty Freight Sector

The heavy-duty road freight sector represents 4% of vehicles on the road globally, yet is responsible for 5% of all CO2 emissions. That’s greater than the contribution of the aviation and ocean shipping sectors combined, with highly negative consequences for the climate and our health. This session will convene players from across the sector – manufacturers, transport shippers, transport buyers and the public sector – that all have a vital role in the future of clean transport.

In this session, we’ll discuss:

What are the operational benefits that are being captured by business leaders today?
How do we identify the outstanding barriers and the regulation that can help to accelerate action?
