Accelerating the adoption of zero emission transport
The Zero Emission Transport Hackathon is calling on innovators, business’s, researchers, students, entrepreneurs and anyone who thinks that they have the next big thing in zero emission transportation.
We’re bringing together different communities nation-wide to conceptualize, test and present novel solutions that accelerate the accessibility to zero-emission transportation across Australia.

How might we accelerate the adoption of zero emission transport to put Australia at the forefront in this field?
Transport is the largest and the fastest growing source of emissions globally. In Canberra, 60% of greenhouse emissions are from transportation alone with privately-owned transportation being the single biggest contributor.
The use and implementation of zero emissions vehicles such as hydrogen powered and electric cars offers clean emission-free alternatives to vehicles with traditional combustion engines and will play a pivotal role in getting not only the ACT’s carbon emissions to net-zero by 2045, but Australia’s as well. There is also a need to innovate in how we implement smart vehicle to grid systems in order to accelerate transition to renewable electricity in our industries and communities.
