DecarboN8 Launch Event

The research network dedicated to place-based decarbonisation of transport

DecarboN8

The UK Government has committed to reducing climate change emissions to ‘Net Zero’ by 2050. This is a huge challenge for the transport sector, which accounts for over a quarter of UK domestic greenhouse gas emissions and has not managed to reduce its emissions over recent years. The DecarboN8 network will bring together researchers, industry and government to designing solutions which can be deployed rapidly and at scale.

Over the next few weeks we will publish further details about the event including confirming speakers.
