The project helps Viet Nam, Kenya and Morocco achieve their climate goals (Nationally Determined Contributions, NDCs), working with the partner countries’ transport and environment ministries in a variety of areas and supporting the following measures in particular:
(1) improving national data collection methods in the transport sector;
(2) implementing best practice in recording and forecasting emissions;
(3) developing and implementing effective climate policy measures in transport, thus aiding the NDC process; and
(4) sharing knowledge in order to encourage the development of local expertise.
The partners in Kenya, Morocco and Viet Nam receive help with developing forecasts of potential developments in the transport sector that enable them to identify where they can reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The project assists with the development and implementation of associated climate policy measures. A further area of activity is the establishment of reporting and monitoring systems to ensure compliance with climate targets.
The project promotes the development of local expertise in measuring emissions and standardises data collection. Through the international exchange of the knowledge gained in the partner countries and the experiences gathered, other countries benefit from the project activities as well. Moreover, the global use of uniform measurement methods will make transport sector data comparable. In order to promote the use of more renewable energy in transport, the project will establish an international secretariat of expertise on sustainable power-to-X technologies. The International PtX Hub Berlin will support the global dissemination of knowledge and best practice in the area of e-fuels. The PtX Hub will dev
