To do this, they have looked at six different types of barriers related to innovation research: resources, behavioural, organizational, information, technology, and legal barriers. The last three were the scope of the GA, but in order to make TOPOS sustainable they also interviewed the organizations about the first three, as these barriers were identified in former WPs as well as in research literature.

Business Modelling, 2. Environmental, 3. Legal/Regulatory, 4. Socio-economic, 5. Technological, and 6. Transport planning. The research of scientific sources has examined three different types of resources, in particular: original research data; operational data directly related to research; data from published transport research.

Across eight local schemes, in different municipalities and regions of Europe, more than 300 fleet operators with over 25,000 total vehicles (trucks, vans, buses and coaches) have been provided with targeted fuel efficiency advice through their scheme membership. Using a common assessment process, each local ECOSTARS scheme has rated their members’ vehicles and operating practices using star rating criteria, to recognize levels of environmental and energy savings performance. Operators have then received tailor-made support to ensure their fleet is running as efficiently and economically as possible, to help them progress to higher ratings within the scheme. The primary objective of the ECOSTARS project was to increase the energy efficiency of freight distribution and pas...
