Electrification and energy efficiency

Projects

Cost‑effectively towards fossil‑free transport by 2045

Emissions reductions in transport are progressing too slowly in relation to the targets. This project produces recommendations to support decision‑making on cost‑effective ways of achieving carbon‑neutral and fossil‑free transport.

The Finnish Climate Change Panel’s Report: Increasing the blending mandate and accelerating electrification will halve transport emissions

The Finnish Climate Change Panel has published an assessment of the current government's transport emission reduction measures in relation to 2030 climate targets. The main challenges relate to changes to the renewable fuel blending mandate. Climate targets can be achieved by increasing the proportion of renewable fuels mixed in with fossil fuels to a sufficient level and by accelerating the electrification of transport. Reducing transport emissions to meet the emissions targets of the effort sharing sector is also economically beneficial.
