SmartWay International Interests
Trade growth has increasingly connected the global economy through the global supply chain. Goods movement networks extend well beyond the United States ports and borders, including multiple modes of transportation. As EPA works to broaden the capability of SmartWay to increase efficiency in the global supply chain, new opportunities are created to assist other countries, regions and trading partners with their freight sustainability efforts.
As an established public-private, market-based partnership, SmartWay has proven to be a good template for freight sustainability programs in other countries. Many countries have adopted elements of SmartWay or are looking for ways to implement SmartWay programs in their countries.
To help these and other countries address their concerns about energy security, economic vitality and climate change, SmartWay works with international stakeholders to help countries design, build and implement their own freight sustainability programs. SmartWay developed a Workbook for Designing a SmartWay Sister Program (PDF) (198 pp, 19.5M, January 2010) with guidance on implementing SmartWay strategies outside of the United States.
