Cyclo-transport of hazardous waste - CANDLE 2023

This project involves replacing the thermal vehicle used to transport hazardous waste produced by the campus laboratories with a sustainable alternative: an electrically-assisted cargo bike. Short car journeys are twice as polluting as long ones. The implementation of this solution will both reduce carbon dioxide emissions and fine particles impacting the environment and health, while preserving transport safety for drivers and passers-by in the streets around the campus.

Project initiators: Thierry Mayenne (SerP) and Simon Hauser (SIGeC)
