Fourteen new global innovators from Belgium, Brazil, Germany, India, the UK, the US and more are joining hundreds of companies and subnational governments as well as 40 national governments in backing the Global Memorandum of Understanding on Zero-Emission Medium- and Heavy-Duty Vehicles (Global MOU). The effort calls for 100% new zero-emission truck sales by 2040 and at least 30% new zero-emission truck and bus sales by 2030. Global MOU endorsers represent more than $1.3 trillion in annual revenues.
Shipping and logistics company DFDS is charging up change with near-zero-emission deliveries throughout the United Kingdom, one of forty countries that have signed the Global Memorandum of Understanding on Zero-Emission Medium- and Heavy-Duty Vehicles (Global MOU) to achieve 100% new zero-emission truck and bus sales by 2040.
The Global Green Road Corridors (GGRC) initiative is transforming the future of freight and transport by decarbonizing the key corridors that move people and the world’s goods from ports to hubs to cities around the globe each day.
The transition to zero-emission commercial vehicles is not just possible—it's happening now. Countries, regions, cities, and fleets around the world are making the critical switch to zero-emission vehicles because of the economic, jobs, clean air, and climate benefits they deliver.
