Project name: customized Environmental Management System (EMS) to increase energy efficiency and reduce energy consumption of different transport modes in Central Europe
Project Acronym: REDU-CE-D

Duration: 01.05.2024 – 30.04.2027
Description
Based on data from the European Environment Agency (EEA), EU energy consumption in transport was 32% higher in 2017 compared to 1990. In Central Europe, this increase was even greater, nearly doubling compared to 1990. The REDU-CE-D project aims to enhance the energy efficiency of transport modes in Central Europe by implementing the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) into various sectors (air, urban, waterway, and rail transport) through the use of a customized Environmental Management System (EMS). The effectiveness of the EMS packages will be tested through pilot actions conducted in four countries (Croatia, Poland, Hungary, Italy). Research and testing results will be presented at the REDU-CE-D conference. The project will support the adoption and implementation of the EMS packages through training activities, awareness campaigns, and lobbying efforts, contributing to the achievement of the EU's energy efficiency goals.
BKK's role in the project is to provide internal and external experts with the necessary expertise to develop an Environmental Management System (EMS) for the urban transport sector. In addition, BKK's main task in the project is to promote the EMS through an awareness-raising campaign, to provide the necessary training for its adaptation, to prepare training materials and to use its extensive network of contacts to disseminate it to as many transport companies as possible. It will also be responsible for testing and measuring the designed Environmental Management System (EMS) during the pilot intervention in Krakow and, on this basis, formulating individual recommendations and modifications for the urban transport sector.
