The Barriers
High costs
Increase the market!Buy many! = co-operate!
Clean vehicles are expensive• Technology development• Educate sellers• Educate maintenance• Spare part chain + SMALL market

Greening transportation
by procuring:
Clean Vehicles Entrepreneurs working for
the public– transport services for the
municipality– public transport– waste collection– taxis driving for the public
