Horizon Scanning Working Group 4: Transport and Mobility

The Energy-SHIFTS Working Groups – of which there are four – run from Autumn 2019 to Summer 2020. This Working Group 4 is specifically interested in research broadly relating to Transport and Mobility.

We will provide a detailed list of 100 Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) critical questions needed to reach the 2050 carbon neutral goal in the area of transport and mobility. These are questions we believe should be prioritised in future EU-funded research and innovation, specifically under Horizon Europe. We are identifying these research questions through a systematic Horizon Scanning methodology.

Energy-SHIFTS has a direct policy advice role to the European Commission’s Directorate General for Research and Innovation (DG RTD).

Further information can be sought from the Working Group Chair (marianne.ryghaug@ntnu.no).
