Driving Change: Innovations in Sustainable Mobility

As cities worldwide grapple with congestion, emissions, and the urgent need to decarbonize transport, sustainable mobility innovations are reshaping urban landscapes. This panel explores how electric vehicles (EVs), smart mobility ecosystems and public transportation upgrades, are accelerating the transition to low-carbon transportation. Focused on Hong Kong’s unique challenges, the session will delve into cutting-edge strategies to overcome barriers to EV adoption, integrate shared mobility platforms, and expand efficient train systems.

Learnings

• What are the most pressing infrastructural and behavioural barriers to widespread EV adoption in dense urban environments like Hong Kong, and how can they be addressed?
• How can smart mobility solutions and public transit enhancements complement EV growth to reduce reliance on private vehicles?
• What policy frameworks or incentives are needed to fast-track sustainable mobility innovations like rail electrification and EV charging networks while ensuring accessibility for all socioeconomic groups?

Post-event Actions

• Assess your organization’s transport operations to identify opportunities for EV integration, public transit incentives, or shared mobility partnerships.
• Understand how public transportation are utilising smart mobility solutions.
• Push for expanded EV incentives and investments to prioritize green transport corridors.
