CCAM Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) 2021-2027
The CCAM Partnership Vision is to ensure European leadership in safe and sustainable road transport through automation. With full integration of CCAM in the transport system, the CCAM Partnership shall contribute to achieving the expected positive impacts for society (safety, environment, inclusiveness), economy (European competitiveness) and science.
For this vision and expected impacts, a multitude of complex challenges need to be addressed and solved at societal, human, technical, regulatory, economic and operational level.
The Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) for CCAM is the multiannual roadmap linking the vision of the Partnership to a portfolio of R&I actions needed to deliver the Partnership’s objectives and achieve the expected impacts. The CCAM SRIA is the basis for CCAM call topics for R&i activities under the Horizon Europe Work Programmes.
Even though the SRIA is covering the full duration of the Partnership, it is updated during the lifetime of the Partnership to reflect any major technological advancement, new emerging challenges, or evolving societal needs.
In the CCAM SRIA updated in 2023, a new sub-chapter titled “Other recent developments” has been introduced to account for ongoing changes in the field, and encompassing diverse elements impacting the CCAM Partnership’s trajectory:
- Evolving societal dynamics
- Shifting work and mobility patterns
- Environmental and equitable mobility focus
- CCAM technologies progress
- Enabling technologies and data sharing updates
- Hurdles and learning opportunities
- Synergies and sustainable transitions
