Electric Mobility Programme in Brazil
The Electric Mobility Programme in Brazil is prepared for registration with Verra – Verified Carbon Standard (VCS). It is a Grouped Project with multiple Project Activity Instances (PAIs). Zeroca is the Project Participant (PP) with overall control and responsibility for the programme. The programme includes multiple PAIs from individual project owners, who control and operate the activities and have a contract with Zeroca.
The programme seeks to accelerate the transition to electric mobility through the participation of various actors linked to the transport sector (owners, suppliers or manufacturers of technology, investors, operators, leasing companies, among others) and only covers battery electric vehicles. Hybrid, plug-in hybrid and fuel cell electric vehicles are not included.
The programme will promote electric mobility by expanding the charging infrastructure for light vehicles and accelerating the transition to electric vehicles in the following categories:
Motorcycles or three-wheeled vehicles (tricycles);
Passenger cars, including taxis and ride-hailing vehicles;
Pick-up trucks;
Light commercial vehicles, including vans and minibuses;
Urban and intercity buses for passenger transport;
Heavy vehicles and lorries.
The programme is expected to have national coverage, supporting the widespread adoption of low-emission transport, which, in addition to contributing to climate change mitigation, will also bring benefits to people’s health and quality of life by reducing air and noise pollution.
We are currently moving forward with the initial stages of evaluation in order to subsequently apply for registration under the VCS standard. You can contact us at brasil@zeroca.world with any questions or comments.
