GSUP 1, Day 1: Decarbonising Transport
Wednesday, 03 November 2021
Day one of our ground-breaking intergovernmental collaboration initiative, the COP26 Global Scale-up Programme has explored global technologies that are tackling decarbonisation.
With a welcome from Mr McKee, Minister for Business, Tourism, Trade and Enterprise of the Scottish Government, special guest Gustavo Junqueira from InvestSP in Brazil and live in-person and virtual presentations from global fast-growth companies from the UK, Lithuania, Denmark, and Brazil.
The Routing Company (US/Scotland)
The Routing Company is an on-demand vehicle routing & management platform helping cities and transport authorities optimise the use of their assets, reduce transportation asset under-utilisation and carbon reduction.
The Routing Company (TRC) partners with cities and agencies to power public transit for their communities. The end-to-end solution is a platform that helps identify transportation wastage.

CHRG Network App (Lithuania)
CHRG Network is a software platform for EV charging that connects all charging stations into a single network, enabling owners to share and monetise their charging stations. We foster the adoption of EV infrastructure helping property owners (housing associations, office & other parking operators) to provide charging services.
Our home market is Lithuania, but we look for access to Denmark, Poland, Estonia etc. The basic function of our software is to help collect payments for the charging service provided.
Secondary, but a no less important function is the Dynamic Load Balancing module which helps efficiently distribute/balance electricity output so that with CHRG software help you can sell 2-3 times more electricity and serve up to 5-10 times more users with the same electricity output.

Scipopulis (Brazil)
Scipopulis has developed a platform that processes and analyses mobility data in real-time, together with other city-data. It generates multiple mobility-related KPIs (including estimates for greenhouse gas emissions) that help cities on the decarbonisation of public transportation.
Together with their partner, the Institute for Energy and Environment in Brazil, they have developed a model that can estimate emissions generated by each bus according to real-world operational conditions.

Mash Makes (Denmark)
Mash Makes relies on its strong ties with the Technical University of Denmark and its decades of topflight research into thermochemical processes. The two major sub-technologies involved are gasification and pyrolysis, which both involve heating hydrocarbon-based matter to high temperatures without the presence of oxygen.
By doing this, the hydrocarbon-based molecules are cracked and turned into ever smaller molecules, which form a so-called synthetic gas (syngas) or pyrolysis gas (pyro gas). This gas can then be condensed in a gas engine for electricity production.
