All NewsDriving progress: accelerating a zero-emission road transportation future
New report shows 24% of world road transportation is committed to transitioning to 100% zero-emission vehicles by 2050: here’s how 2021 supercharged this urgent climate transition, featuring highlights from global Drive Electric coalition include landmark policies and pilots to electrify trucks, cars, buses, and all other road vehicles.
People around the world are already beginning to experience clean, zero-emission transportation: from the quiet efficiency of e-buses in Latin America, to the power of pollution-free delivery e-bikes in Delhi, to the growing number of car and truck drivers saying goodbye to oil. As of the end of 2021, roughly one quarter of the world’s road transportation is committed to becoming emissions-free by or before 2050.
