Overview
Background & policy context:
The number of vehicles, the transport fleet, is increasing rapidly with regard to milage, the number of vehicles, and energy consumption. The FLEAT Project focuses on the reduction of energy consumption and CO2 emissions for this vehicle fleet.
Objectives:
The FLEAT Project had the following objectives:
- To build a network that will deliver input to the knowledge building, contribute to the implementation of pilot actions and benefit from FLEAT findings.
- To integrate the knowledge into a toolkit for fleet operators and a policy mix for different policy makers.
- To test the tools in practice for different types of fleets: public fleets of local administrations, public transport fleets and private company fleets.
- To assess the effectiveness of the tools in pilot actions to different types of fleets following a consistent approach and during a period that is sufficiently long to come with sound conclusions and reliable figures.
Methodology:
The project was organized into the following six work packages (WP):
WP 1: Management activities.
WP 2: Networking activities.
WP 3: Development of knowledge of existing tools, instruments and transport efficiency.
WP 4: Testing of the integrated toolkit.
WP 5: Monitoring the different impacts of tools and other measures..
WP 6: Dissemination of knowledge.
