BSR in the New Silk Road corridor . 161160 References ................................................................ 164 5 Introduction Freight transport is responsible for around 25% of the European Union’s (EU) green- house gas emissions, making it the second largest emitting sector after energy. Sig- nificant reductions in emissions are needed to achieve long term climate goals in the EU with projections showing an increase in the total freight transport activity of about 58% (1.2% p.a.) between 2010 and 2050. Many efforts to achieve a modal shift have already been taken in recent history. The most promising market segment is combined transport (CT). However, even in this segment, the focus has always been on the “racetracks” with large point to point volumes, such as block trains in the rail sector and inland shipping services on the Rhine and Danube. In the Baltic Sea Region (BSR) countries CT still plays a minor role in the transport system. To change this situation, nearly 30 partners from ten countries in the BSR have joined forces in the COMBINE project. With support from the Interreg Baltic Sea Region program, various ministries of transport, lobby organizations, and industry partners, the project has developed strategies, initiated promotion campaigns to strengthen CT, and tested new solutions and services in pilot demonstrations. COMBINE’s aim of achieving a modal shift towards ship and rail was achieved. Pilot activities in the project have proven the feasibility of CT solutions, even though it is in many cases not yet on the table, or mind-set, of relevant stakeholders. For further development of CT and implementation of new technologies (and thus investments into CT infrastructure) this would be an important starting point. COMBINE attempted to increase knowledge about CT among relevant stakeholders by raising awareness through the political sector by demonstrating the benefits of CT and its significance—disclosing developmental aspects for CT financial need and support . As a response to stakeholder involvement, the COMBINE partnership has devel- oped this CT e-book to describe all CT-related issues in the BSR, e.g., terminals with their service portfolio, operators, and other stakeholders. Most important rules and regulations as well as the most promising last mile solutions and handling technolo- gies have been looked at in a BSR-centric manner. The use of the e-book should make it easier for CT organization and development. 7 1. Definitions of combined transport Intermodal transport has evolved through the convergence of different “transport worlds”—some of which have been ideologically separated for a long time. These worlds have developed their own jargon, and this makes communication between them more difficult. A crucial condition for the acceptance and success of intermodal transport is that communication is as smooth as possible since system-based coop- eration is required. The aim of this chapter is an attempt to harmonize the different jargons so as to ensure complete understanding of intermodal transport within the context of COMBINE. Properly defining and adopting terms is essential to the suc- cess of the project itself. The research activities on terminology have been focused on three terms: (1) combined and intermodal transport, (2) intermodal loading unit, and (3) terminal. For each term, an analysis using the regulatory framework from EU Directives, various international glossary-based sources, and best practices from industry associations is applied. 1.1. Combined and intermodal transport In Europe, different EU Directives integrate an official definition of CT or Intermodal Transport, i.e., (1) Directive 92/106 on the establishment of common rules for cer- tain types of CT of goods between Member States, and (2) Directive 719/2015 laying down for certain road

    Fuel Cell Electric Buses An attractive Value Proposition for Zero-Emission Buses In Denmark - April 2020 - Photo: An Attractive Line Bloch Value Klostergaard, Proposition North for Denmark Zero-Emission Region Buses. in Denmark Executive Summary Seeking alternatives to diesel buses are crucial for realizing the Danish zero Zero–Emission Fuel Cell emission reduction agenda in public transport by 2050. In Denmark alone, public transport and road-transport of cargo account for ap- proximately 25 per cent of the Danish CO2 emissions. Thus, the deployment of zero emission fuel cell electric buses (FCEBs) will be an important contribution Electric Buses for Denmark. to the Danish climate law committed to reaching 70 per cent below the CO2 emissions by 2030 and a total carbon neutrality by 2050. In line with the 2050 climate goals, Danish transit agencies and operators are being called to implement ways to improve air quality in their municipalities while maintaining quality of service. This can be achieved with the deployment of FCEBs and without compromising on range, route flexibility and operability. As a result, FCEBs are now also being included as one of the solutions in coming zero emission bus route tenders Denmark. Danish municipalities play an important role in establishing the public transport system of the future, however it is also essential that commercial players join forces to realize the deployment of zero-emission buses. In order to push the de- velopment forward, several leading players in the hydrogen fuel cell value chain have teamed up and formed the H2BusEurope consortium committed to support the FCEB infrastructure.

  • Outlet Centres in Europe
    MARKET SURVEY March 2021 Outlet Centres in Europe Market Survey covering all operating and planned Outlet Centres in the European Countries Study within the Scope of ecostra’s Basic Research understanding markets | evaluating risks | discovering chances Preliminary remarks Beginning in the USA and, over the past 25 years, subsequently spreading in Europe as well, a new retail format has been established: the Factory Outlet Centre (FOC) or Designer Outlet Centre (DOC). In the meantime, such a high density of Outlet Centres already exists in some European countries (e.g. Great Britain), that one can certainly speak of market saturation here. Thus, in Great Britain, as in the USA also, a market shakeout is observable among locations of Outlet Centres, whereby the most professional operators, and accordingly suitable locations, win out over less productive concepts or locations with weaknesses. The situation in continental Europe is somehow different. Due what are, to date, extremely restrictive building permission procedures compared to those in the rest of Europe, Germany has only a very few Outlet Centres in relation to the size of this national market. However, there is little doubt that this will change in the medium-term perspective, at least. The kind of emotional argument that often used to take place until just a few years ago has now given way to a much more factual discussion on the advantages and disadvantages of establishing an Outlet Centre. Whereas Germany still shows a lot of potential for new Outlet Centres, Italy has seen a rapid development in the last years, and it’s difficult to discover any “white spots” on the map there.

  • The Road from Kyoto
    FTkyoto ok 19/10/00 11:39 Page 1 INTERNATIONAL ENERGY AGENCY THE ROAD FROM KYOTO Current CO2 and Transport Policies in the IEA gardekyoto ok 19/10/00 11:41 Page 1 INTERNATIONAL ENERGY AGENCY THE ROAD FROM KYOTO Current CO2 and Transport Policies in the IEA Foreword FOREWORD Transport accounts for almost a third of total final energy consumption in IEA countries, and 80% of that amount is in the form of road transport. Cars and trucks will be the principal source of carbon dioxide emissions in the foreseeable future. The central role of transport in economic activity and its pervasive influence on every day life make it complex and politically difficult to change. CO2 emissions are just one of many policy concerns, such as safety, urban quality, local air pollution, noise and congestion, that transport raises. Government at many levels — local, regional and national — deals with fuel taxation, urban and regional planning, transport infrastructure investments and public transport. These activities need to be co-ordinated to achieve an effective transport policy in relation to oil security and climate change. “The Road from Kyoto” reviews and offers insights into how governments are grappling with the complexity of transport and CO2 policy making. It examines the transport sector from the perspective of the emissions reduction commitments made under the 1997 Kyoto Protocol. It identifies the components of transport that affect CO2 emissions and details policies that contribute to emissions reduction. It presents detailed accounts of the current and future situation in six IEA countries — Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, the United Kingdom, as well as the European Union as a whole and the United States.

Due to European Union legislative mandates, the railway freight market was deregulated in 2007. The market followed the trend started by other transport modes as well as other previously regulated industries such as banking, telecommunications and energy. Globally, the first country to deregulate the railway freight market was the United States, with the introduction of the Staggers Rail Act in 1980.
