Urban Freight Energy Efficiency Pilot (FREILOT)
Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
Transportation of goods is a key enabler for European economy to maintain its competitiveness. However, the same transportation brings other, less positive effects, such as CO2 emissions, contributing to the global gas house effect. Therefore, reduction of fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and emissions of other pollutants is one of the biggest challenges for the road transport today.The specific en ...
