The Paris Agreement and the Climate Protection Plan 2050 set clear CO₂ reduction targets in the transport sector. These can only be achieved with a significant increase in vehicle electrification. The RESCUE study described a resource-saving and greenhouse gas-neutral transport in 2050. The two basic strategies of substitution of technologies and products as well as avoidance through efficiency, sufficiency or consistency are central.

In the AutoRess project, technical and non-technical options are analyzed and specified across all vehicle lifecycle phases (resource extraction, vehicle design, vehicle manufacture, use phase and end-of-life) to reduce the impact of traffic on climate protection and resource consumption. Based on this, suitable instruments and measures are developed and evaluated. The investigations, projections and measures are based on the RESCUE scenarios, especially the GreenSupreme scenario, taking into account current ramp-up scenarios and current political goals. Based on this, a circular economy roadmap for vehicles will be developed, which will be discussed in stakeholder dialogues.
