Moderator: Joanna Moody Speakers: - Sergey Paltsev (9 minuets) "Mobility policy, energy demand, and global scenarios" - Jessika Trancik (9 minuets) "Low-carbon mobility technology development: Measuring progress and predicting innovation opportunities using new models"
Mobility systems are constantly changing. Currently, the availability of on-demand mobility services and the development of new vehicle technologies (e.g. electric vehicles) is altering the way we travel in urban areas. At the same time, policymakers around the world tackle the environmental challenges associated with mobility systems through new policies including emission standards and driving restrictions. This session sets out to (i) provide an overview of emerging vehicle technologies for passenger ground transportation, especially with regard to fuels and powertrains, (ii) outline the interaction of technology adoption with different policy scenarios, and (iii) describe current adoption of new technologies and future innovation opportunities.
