Accelerating the transition: what will it take to scale zero-emission transport?

The transition to zero-emission transport is no longer just about vehicles. As transport becomes increasingly connected with energy systems, digital technologies and charging infrastructure, the boundaries between automotive, energy and technology are rapidly disappearing. Delivering the transition at the speed and scale required will depend not only on innovation, but on how effectively businesses, governments and investors work together to build the systems that enable it. At the same time, advances in batteries, software and manufacturing are helping to drive down costs and expand access to electric mobility. Yet technology alone will not deliver the transition. Significant barriers remain, including charging deployment, grid readiness, investment requirements and the policy frameworks needed to support long-term growth. The stakes go beyond individual industries. The choices made today will determine how quickly zero-emission transport scales, how resilient and competitive transport systems become, and whether progress can keep pace with climate and economic ambitions. As transport, energy and technology converge, how do we build the systems, partnerships and policies needed to scale zero-emission transport faster?
