of modal shifts) within the European Union and in G20 countries.
Webinar panelists reviewed the various policy measures implemented in the transport sector (such as minimum energy performance standards, labels and promotion
of modal shifts) within the European Union and in G20 countries, and they related them to energy demand growth and energy efficiency improvements.
However, he warned: «Beyond that we will need to bring forward longer term projects to tackle the capacity constraints that are hindering both economic development and the kind
