ACTUATE – Formación Avanzada y Educación para la Eco-conducción segura de “Clean Vehicles” (Vehículos de baja emisión)
El proyecto ACUATE fondeado por la UE (de mayo 2012 hasta enero 2015) ha terminado. El proyecto tenía el fin de optimizar la manera de conducir vehículos nuevos e innovadores para reducir el consumo energético. La página web creada seguirá operativa y permitirá descargar material promocional, educativo e informativo sobre “Advanced Training and Education for Safe Eco-driving of Clean Vehicles” en la sección de “Outputs”.
Todo este material se ha creado y testeado y comprobado para ayudar a las empresas de transporte público a distribuirlo entre sus conductores para aplicar esa forma de conducción de los vehículos.
Para información general sobre el proyecto y/o cualquier cuestión adicional sobre ACUATE se ruego contactar con el coordinador a través de la sección “Contact”.
