Sustainable Transport for Georgia: A Roadmap Executive summary
…roadmap guides policy makers in making transport cleaner, fairer and more efficient while building on Georgia’s strengths – its location, institutions, competitive wages, low-emissions electricity and natural resources. Key opportunities include assembling and producing electric vehicles; manufacturing cells and battery components for mobility and storage; strengthening regional freight links; and developing low-emission fuels.Road transport has become cleaner and more efficient, but progress needs to accelerate. Car ownership and freight activity have risen along with incomes, but this comes at a cost: Nearly all of Georgia’s transport fuel is imported, exposing the country to price and security…

Sustainable Transport for Georgia: A Roadmap Sustainable transport roadmap
…on imported fossil fuels creates fuel price volatility, slows growth and raises geopolitical risks. Transport electrification and efficiency can substantially enhance energy security and resilience.This roadmap describes how Georgia can seize strategic opportunities from transport sector transformation. Doing so can bring health, mobility and job benefits while aligning Georgia with Paris Agreement commitments. Policy makers are working with corporate partners and supporting priorities set out in earlier plans, as shown by already completed or underway in the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) and the 2024-2025 Climate Action Plan. Some prospects, such as partnering with global firms to…

Southeast Asia Energy Outlook 2026 Energy in Southeast Asia
…is becoming an increasingly important part of the global energy system. The region accounts for 9% of the world’s population and 4% of its GDP. Energy use has risen sharply since 2015, supported by industrialisation, urbanisation, rising incomes and expanding mobility needs. This growth has helped underpin economic development and wider access to modern energy, but it has also increased exposure to global fuel markets and added to emissions. The current Middle East crisis has tested Southeast Asia’s energy security and affordability, exposing the limits of short-term responses. The region was heavily exposed to Middle Eastern supply…

Global EV Outlook 2025 Trends in other light-duty electric vehicles
…in other regions was steady. China, India and Southeast Asia remain the world’s largest 2/3W markets, accounting for around 80% of 2024 global sales, with 2/3Ws serving as the primary mode of private passenger transport in India and Southeast Asia. Electric 2/3Ws stand out as the most affordable and accessible entry point into electric mobility. Unlike cars, many models do not rely on extensive charging infrastructure, as removable batteries allow users to charge at home, and those with private parking or garages can easily charge their electric 2/3Ws using standard sockets. The removable batteries have…

Global Hydrogen Review 2025 Demand
…is still almost exclusively from established sectors (refining, ammonia, methanol and fossil-based direct reduced iron [DRI]), with demand for new applications (biofuels upgrading, new industrial uses, mobility, power or synthetic fuels) growing but from a very low base – less than 1% of demand.Low-emissions hydrogen use increased by nearly 10% in 2024 but remains at less than 1% of total demand due to cost challenges and insufficient policy support. Policy initiatives in the European Union, Japan and Korea, and forthcoming measures from the International Maritime Organization (IMO) can accelerate ramp-up, but their impact will only be seen through…

Sustainable Transport Policy for Armenia: A Roadmap Policy recommendations and milestones
…it also offers significant opportunities to lower CO2 emissions, improve transport accessibility for people and businesses, enhance regional and international connectivity and wean Armenia from its dependence on imported fossil fuels.In the summary below, the recommendations offered in this roadmap have been grouped into three categories to help the government prioritise its actions effectively and ensure a systematic transition toward low-carbon mobility. Each category reflects the level of urgency, impact and feasibility of the proposals:Critical Measures: These are high-priority actions essential for achieving energy and transport policy goals. They require immediate implementation and will have the…

Mobility Management Action Programme
…two national competitions, public relations and an online portal the "Mobility Management Action Programme € of the German Energy Agency is aimed at companies and organisations (including public administration departments, hospitals, universities, etc.), municipalities and mobility providers. The objective is improved coordination between supply and demand of private mobility, a shift from passenger vehicle transport to more efficient forms of transport, and improvement of communication about mobility. In the framework of the National Climate Protection Initiative the BMU is supporting the German Energy Agency "Mobility Management Action Programme €, which was launched in 2008 and under which local agents in…
