In September 2024, the ADCCAM2ZERO (Adoption CCAM 2ZERO) project was launched under the Interreg IPA ADRION Program, with the University of Patras as lead partner and with the participation of 11 partners from nine countries in the Adriatic-Ionian region.
The project aims to improve urban mobility by reducing the energy, material and space consumption deficiencies caused by traditional transport patterns. By promoting zero-emission transport and connected, autonomous mobility, the ADCCAM2ZERO project addresses key challenges such as congestion, pollution and under-utilised public transport.
The core of the project is the Digital Twins technology, which allows data-driven analysis of different modes of transport, including co-modality, public transport and cycling. This will help urban planners to optimise infrastructure investments for greater social benefit. In addition, the project promotes the use of sharing economy services, such as car and bike sharing, to reduce car dependency and improve sustainability.
The project also introduces a carbon market trading model that rewards sustainable mobility choices and aligns with local policies. It aims to promote partnerships between mobility service providers and urban planners to implement sustainable urban mobility schemes that improve quality of life and serve as a model for the region.
