Abstract

This project, which contains some of the elements of the previous VIEWLS project aims at:

• building an attractive European Partnership in which biofuel and energy efficient vehicle stakeholders and local governments and industrial and commercial end-users meet and are encouraged to form new partnerships. This, in order to accelerate on the short term the market introduction of biofuels and energy efficient vehicles within the opportunities local sustainable mobility policies offer, and on the longer term to stimulate the continued market penetration of biofuels to develop both the biofuel developments through identification of strategic R&D needs and the jont development of the sustainable mobility and environmental policies;
• validating the results and monitor in an independent and uniformed way the progress of biofuel projects, both R&D and demonstrattion, in order to advice industrial and commercial stakeholders, national local government and the European Commission on further implementation of biofuels and energy efficient vehicles;
• supporting the biofuel stakeholders and the local governments in their communication, dissemination and awareness raising activities by supplying tools developed within this project, based on the experiences from the project execution and the resulting information from all stakeholder.

The expected results of this project are:

• a well-established and highly-rated operational Biofuel cities European Partnership, which will continue its operation after the project's period of 36 months; and
• an operational monitoring system to keep track of the biofuel projects developments in Europe. The consortium for this Co-ordination Action consists of seven partners, having extensive experience in managing and co-ordinating activities in: biofuels, sustainable mobility, energy efficiency, local governments and enterprises, environment activities and communication and communication strategy development.
