Financing an accelerated shift to zero emission vehicles by deploying High-Capacity Transport with Intelligent Access by 2024

The paper explores synergies by bundling High-Capacity Transport - Intelligent Access - Zero Emission Vehicle reforms. State of the art is analyzed, and research questions are formulated. One joint policy framework is proposed and applied to three use cases: one vehicle, one real use case, and one scenario for the whole of EU. In the later, the cost savings 2024 to 2028 from allowing longer and/or heavier vehicles is estimated to 51 bn. EURO. That savings is used to accelerate the shift to zero emission instead of lowering the price for road transport, which is expected to cause unacceptable shift from rail and sea to road transport. A harmonized scheme to collect the savings and distribute them to the stakeholders for investing in zero emission multimodal transport is proposed for EU where local adaption is accomplished with parameters. Finally, areas for future research are suggested.
