The Workshop on Dutch initiatives supporting road zero-emission freight and logistics, organised by ALICE, EMEurope, and ENTRANCE took place on 28 March 2023 online and was attended by 70 participants. The workshop was co-organised by Rijkswaterstaat, the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management, and CALSTART/Drive to Zero, information about the Dutch strategies and funding measures, as well as examples of case studies to support zero-emission road transport will be presented.
The aim is to bring together representatives of companies, research, cities, and (national/regional) policymakers to share information on current and planned incentive schemes, especially about research and innovation (R&I) programmes to accelerate the transition towards zero-emission road freight transport and logistics in European regions and countries.
