The 13th Annual Forum for International Green and Smart Mobility has highlighted Asia Pacific’s momentum around intelligent transport

Held as a flagship feature of the 360° Mobility Mega Shows in Taipei in April, the 13th Annual Forum for International Green and Smart Mobility, jointly staged with the 1st Asia Pacific Road User Charging (RUC) Summit, brought together government leaders, transport agencies, and industry innovators from across the region.
While the broader show spotlighted Taiwan’s strength in EVs, connected systems, and next generation components, the forum served as a policy and thought leadership centre for the event, where mobility strategy, carbon governance, and the future of road use funding took the stage.
With delegations from the United States, New Zealand, India, Japan, Thailand, Southeast Asia, and Taiwan, the summit reflected the Asia Pacific region’s growing coordination on intelligent mobility and climate-aligned transport planning.
Co organised by Far EasTone Telecommunications, the Taiwan Institute for Sustainable Energy, ITS Taiwan, and the Asia Pacific Road User Charging Alliance, the forum’s agenda focused on the intertwined challenges of AI-enabled traffic management, decarbonisation, and sustainable infrastructure financing.
The morning program focused on AI applications and net zero transport strategies, opening with remarks from senior Taiwanese industry and government representatives.
Keynote sessions then followed, with ITS America’s Bobby McCurdy outlining a measurement framework for reconstructing road network value through carbon reduction, while Far EasTone’s Philip Tseng detailed how AI driven ITS data can deliver verified emissions reductions, positioning road systems as measurable contributors to national climate goals.
A high level panel followed, examining how carbon savings from AI mobility systems can evolve into practical RUC pilots, with speakers from New Zealand, Thailand, and India sharing their insights, before the afternoon began with an Asia-Pacific RUC Alliance New Member Joining ceremony.
Three panel sessions then tackled the full lifecycle of RUC development: why the region must act now, how policy intent becomes pilot design, and what future systems could look like in a connected vehicle era.
Insights from Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Japan, and technical experts here highlighted a shared recognition that funding models must modernise alongside the vehicles that use the roads.
As part of the 360° Mobility Mega Shows and supported by Taiwan’s strong mobility ecosystem, TAITRA says the summit reinforced the region’s collaborative trajectory toward cleaner, smarter, and financially resilient transport systems.
