  1. Behavioral Change and Modal Structure Turning the Right Corner Towards a Low Emission Transport Sector Eva Molnar

  2. UNECE – Centre of Transport Agreements Introduction Decision making bodies – 57 UN Transport Agreements, incl. Vehicle regulations (WP.29) Analytical work Capacity building & TA Automotive angle Technical Assistance Complexity

  3. WP.29 response to climate change Introduction Vehicles Regulations ElectronicStability Control PedestrianSafety ChildRestraintSystems Euro VI FuelQualityStandards Safety & EnvironmentalRulesforperiodicaltechnicalinspections Automotive angle UNECE WP.29 (2008) - a possible strategy for climate change mitigation : 2015. 30% increase of energy efficiency of all new vehicles with the current combustion engine technology 2020. full introduction into the global market of new environmentally friendly vehicles (e.g. plug-in hybrid electric vehicles hydrogen and fuel-cell vehicles) 2040. full introduction of electric vehiclesinto the global market Technical Assistance Complexity

  4. Changes through regulations, technology and behavior Local impact Air pollution has come under control: Through UNECE regulations and the EURO standards by the European Union. Noise: Up to 100% of the population in agglomerations are affected by transport noise above 55db in daytime! Global impact Energy use and emission from transport: Linked with economic growth! Road transport: Constitutes for over one-fourth of total energy consumption! Introduction Automative Angle Technical Assistance All options – choice with governments Complexity BEST PRACTICE Eco-driver training The Austrian Postal services reduced the annual fuel consumption by 2 million litres through eco-driver training of the drivers.

  5. CO2 reduction project: ForFITS • Global • UNDA funded • 2011-13 • Measuring and Action: Transport Policy Converter Introduction Automative Angle Technical Assistance Assessing CO2 emissions- For Future Inland Transport Systems All options – choice with governments Complexity

  6. Technology is important, but not everything Political will Infrastructure challenge Source of energy Fundamentelly new ways of transport pricing A lot can be achieved through boosting PT and NMT Introduction Automotive angle Technical Assistance Complexity
