Strong low-emission zone (LEZ) policies could cut fleet-wide emissions by up to 90% in Warsaw, shows a new analysis from the Real World Emissions Initiative (TRUE), ahead of the city’s forthcoming LEZ plan announcements.
The FIA Foundation played a key role during the 2023 International Transport Forum Summit (ITF) launching three reports with partners and hosting a sustainable mobility panel side event. The work covered a range of issues from global decarbonisation, gender imbalance and active mobility investment, connecting to the Summit’s theme ‘Transport enabling sustainable economies.’
Without targeted support for low- and middle-income countries to transition toward zero-emission mobility, progress will be critically slowed, risking serious and inequitable outcomes, warns a new report by the UC Davis Institute of Transportation Studies (ITS-Davis) and the UK Government’s ZEV Transition Council (ZEVTC), supported by the FIA Foundation.
Up to three-quarters of European diesel vehicles are producing “extreme” NOx emissions which indicate they have cheat devices installed, warns new analysis from the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) which drew on TRUE Initiative data.
A low-emission zone (LEZ) in Warsaw, Poland could help reduce NOx emissions by 30% and PM emissions by 57% by 2025, says TRUE modelling following the city’s newly announced plans to tackle poor air quality.
