As more European governments look to phase out the use of petrol and diesel vehicles in their towns and cities, what are the required policy-making and industrial next steps with regards alternative fuel options? As the push towards greater electrification of the transport sector gains increased traction, what are the requirements for building out the necessary infrastructure and architecture, especially in the light of European Commission’s Europe on the Move initiative?

Finally, as data and digital technologies are now often seen as panaceas, the conference looked at some practical examples of real-life innovations that are driving decarbonisation and more intelligent transport systems, the same as at the policy frameworks necessary to deliver the potential for digital mobility.
