Decarbonization of passenger transport is one of the key means to reduce the global GHG emissions and stabilize the climate to an acceptable warming level. The emissions from the road transport sector relate to travel behaviors and the technologies, which are driven by policies, incentives and disincentives, and transport networks. Moreover, the overall emissions are not simply those caused within an urban region, but the sum of global production and delivery chain emissions of vehicles and fuels. Along with the electrification of the vehicle fleet, the importance of the production phase increases, as well as those of the local electricity system.
