This brief provides highlights from a clinic on designing e-mobility models for planning, procurement, structuring, and financing.
Transportation ranks as the second-largest contributor to global carbon dioxide emissions, comprising 23% of energy-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions worldwide and 18% of total man-made emissions. There are forecasts Southeast Asia will see an additional 58 million people relocating to its cities by 2030, exacerbating the region's problems with traffic congestion, air pollution, and GHG.
This brief brief provides highlights from the E-Mobility for Green Urban Transport clinic organized by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in September 2022.
The clinic provided technical training on designing e-mobility models for planning, procurement, structuring, and financing. Participants delved into case studies showcasing global best practices and innovative finance approaches to adopt and scale up e-mobility. Discussions also focused on the design or upgrade of public transport systems.
The event is part of the ASEAN Catalytic Green Finance Facility (ACGF) Innovative Finance Clinics, developed by the Southeast Asia Green Finance Hub in collaboration with other ADB departments, ACGF partners, and ASEAN governments. The clinics bring together government officials, experts, financiers, and other stakeholders to identify and enhance capacity for bankable project opportunities.
