Sustainable mobility initiatives and projects

Repsol Foundation Chair at the University of Barcelona

Chair in Energy Transition on CO2 recovery and use systems

We are moving more and more. We move to work, to transport goods, to visit family and friends or to get to know other cultures. But the current mobility model is contributing quite prominently to global warming in general and to poor air quality in cities. Transport is a sector that consumes 30% of the world's energy and generates more than 20% of CO2 emissions.

Objective of the Chair

This initiative initially focuses on research and dissemination of CO2 recovery and use systems, one of the great challenges in the fight against climate change and, at the same time, key to meeting the goals set in the Paris Agreement.

Lines of work

Se hace especial foco en las Soluciones Basadas en la Naturaleza, que son enfoques, acciones o procesos que utilizan los principios de la naturaleza para dar solución a distintos problemas relacionados con la gestión territorial y urbana como la adaptación al cambio climático, la gestión de los recursos, del agua, la seguridad alimentaria o la calidad del aire y el entorno.
