European Roadmap Electrification of Road Transport 2nd Edition

The European Roadmap on the “Electrification of Road Transport”, recently published jointly by the European Technology Platforms ERTRAC, EPoSS and ETIP SNET (namely its predecessor ETP Smartgrids), provides background information and R&D&I roadmaps for the electrification of the different vehicle categories. It has been the major source of recommendations for the projects funded by the European Green Cars Initiative in FP7, followed by the European Green Vehicles Initiative in Horizon 2020. The task of the roadmap is to set the scene, give clear objectives, and list the milestones that require funding or policy action at European level.
