GreenMob
The GreenMob project aims to address urban mobility challenges by promoting sustainable transport options and reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions produced by motorised trips. GreenMob proposes a journey planner that integrates various modes of transport providing comprehensive information on routes, schedules, fares, and updates in real-time, as well as the innovative integration of a CO2 monitoring tool that automatically recognises the mode of transport used and calculates emissions, allowing consumers to make informed decisions. By offering a user-friendly interface that calculates and shows CO2 emissions associated with city trips, the project intends to increase awareness and support ecologically responsible transportation options for city travel. Tests will be conducted in the cities of Cesena, Italy; Viladecans, Spain; and Debrecen, Hungary to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of the solution.

GreenMob aims to promote sustainable transport options and reduce CO2 emissions, and to increase awareness and support eco-friendly transportation.
The challenge of future mobility will be addressed by improving accessibility and providing efficient service and vehicle management; fostering European-wide interoperability across systems by integrating public and commercial mobility services.
The activity will provide a technological solution that automatically recognises the mode of transport used and calculates emissions by piloting the tool in three European cities: Viladecans, Cesena, and Debrecen.
The GreenMob project involved the creation of three journey planners with an integrated CO2 calculator in order to track the CO2 emissions of different modes of transport for users to choose the most sustainable option. New apps were developed for Cesena (Italy) and Viladecans (Spain), and the CO2 calculator API was integrated into the existing journey planner app Menetrend.app in Debrecen (Hungary). Through the pilots more than 1000 users per city tested and helped further develop the apps. GreenMob encouraged walking, cycling and public transport which contributed to a significant amount of CO2 saved in each city. The apps in Cesena and Debrecen will continue beyond the project, which will help their improvement and further development.
