Transcript OntheMove Episode 2

An observatory for industrial vehicle and road freight transport

The Industrial Vehicle Observatory (IVO), created under the impetus of the BNP Paribas Group and its subsidiary BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions, presents twice-yearly market forecasts for the industrial vehicle sector. Its surveys and analyses are eagerly awaited by players and experts in the transport sector. The IVO also participates in discussions and working groups on environmental issues, such as the National Low Carbon Strategy (SNBC).

"To engage the energy transition in the industrial vehicle and freight transport sector, we must be armed with patience and pragmatism. Because, while it is true that it is absolutely essential that the revolution happen, and that we succeed in this energy transition, there are many technological shifts that we must be able to integrate by 2030. What's more, a complex economic context requires that mobility actors find a viable economic model using new energies.”
