The mission of this sub-programme is to contribute to more efficient transport and mobility solutions to tackle societal challenges in relation efficiency, accessibility and resilience.
We fund research, development and testing of new, innovative solutions that include a systems perspective to challenges in the transport system. This relates to vehicles, technologies, services, business models, processes/tools, regulatory frameworks and behaviour. We consider it beneficial if the project considers system effects at a societal level.
Challenges that have been identified within the sub-programme
Efficiency: To meet the challenges posed by climate change, society needs to transition to fossil-free, resource-efficient transport for personal mobility, freight, housebuilding and other societal services
Equality and accessibility: Equal accessibility means equal access to work, housing, societal services, leisure activities and deliveries. In striving for a socially sustainable transport system, it is therefore important to consider the needs and conditions of various user groups to a greater extent, as well as the transport needs of businesses
Resilience: A functioning transport system for people and freight is a cornerstone of society, and it must continue to function under changing circumstances and during crises and disruption
