Project Summary
The future of transport faces critical challenges, including rapid urbanization, increasing traffic congestion, and rising emissions which can impact sustainable economic growth and productivity. The transport sector can benefit from technology- driven solutions, such as AI, IoT, and Intelligent Transport System, to enable resource efficient mobility across APEC economies.
This project aims to promote and accelerate the adoption of cutting-edge Smart Mobility solutions technologies to enhance urban mobility and reduce adverse impacts. In collaboration with APEC working groups (EWG, TPTWG, and Automotive Dialogue), the project will identify key drivers and emerging trends shaping the future of mobility, with a Preliminary Report due by April 2026.
A Foreshight Workshop (August 2026, Lima, Peru) will gather policymakers, industry leaders, and foresight experts to develop future scenarios and strategic pathways for resource efficient transportation. The Final Report will consolidate findings, scenario analyses, and actionable policy recommendations to guide APEC economies in effectively implementing Smart Mobility innovations.
Relevance
Region
According to the APEC Energy Demand and Supply Outlook, 8th Edition (2022), Annex II: Data Projection Tables, published by the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APERC), projections for 2025 estimate that the transport sector will account for nearly 21% of CO? emissions across APEC’s 21 economies [1].
