The transportation sector produces more than seven billion metric tonnes of carbon dioxide (GtCO2) a year, with cars and vans being the biggest emissions source accounting for 48 per cent of global transportation emissions (Tiseo, I, Statista, 2023). This hasn’t gone unnoticed by policymakers trying to address climate change issues.
The Conference of the Parties (COP) 28 held in Dubai last December 2023 resulted in an agreement among nations to transition away from fossil fuels. Parallel to COP 28, the High-Level Champions and the Marrakech Partnership compiled the “2030 Climate Solutions: Implementation Roadmap” specifying targets for road transport, which include among others, zero emission vehicles (ZEVs) as being the new normal by 2030 and ZEVs making up 100 per cent of total global passenger vehicles and vans sales by 2030. The 2030 Climate Solutions summarise actions required to achieve systems change by 2030 as pathways toward a global netzero, resilient and nature positive world. Applying the definition of the California Air Resources Board, ZEVs include battery EVs, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs).
