Completing the Trip: Establishing a Global Quantified Climate Goal for the Transport Sector

The World Resources Institute proposes a global transport sector target for 2035: a 35% shift to green fuels and a 25% reduction in energy consumption compared to 2022. This goal aims to provide a shared framework for countries to inform their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) following the COP28 global stocktake.

• The World Resources Institute proposes a global sectoral target for transport by 2035 consisting of a shift to 35 percent green fuels and a 25 percent reduction in transport energy consumption relative to 2022 levels. This target is intended to cover all transport modes and utilize a comprehensive approach including electrification, sustainable fuels for maritime and aviation, and shifts toward rail and public transport.
