GreenTurn aims to co-create zero-emission logistics solutions, provide sound and transparent information on e-commerce footprints, and enable more sustainable delivery and return choices.
The project brings together a diverse range of e-commerce stakeholders to co-create zero emission logistics solutions, provide sound and transparent in formation on e-commerce footprints, and enable more sustainable delivery and return choices. GreenTurn solutions combine various behavioural interventions with delivery and return options, using design thinking approaches to develop stakeholder-centric solutions and secure widespread support for delivery and return strategies which can minimise e-commerce related emissions and traffic congestion.

The GreenTurn consortium has identified 7 specific objectives (SO) to address the call topic:
SO1. Consolidate knowledge on attractive zero-emission delivery and return options, and successful behavioural interventions leading to greener choices
SO2. Co-develop solutions with diverse stakeholders, combining behaviour interventions and delivery and return options, testing them through pilots that cover the most relevant e-commerce markets and sales channels, as well as different geographies and cultures
SO3. Develop a concrete, step-by-step way to account for the footprint of e-commerce deliveries and returns, in line with CountEmissions EU
SO4. Develop replicable and scalable processes for retailers and LSPs, supporting them to provide consumers with accurate information regarding environmental footprints
SO5. Develop guidelines for data visualisation which can incentivise smaller e-commerce footprints for deliveries and returns
SO6. Develop a sound methodology to evaluate the successful communication, implementation, and adoption of zero-emission delivery and return options
SO7. Work with consumers, retailers, logistics service providers and public authorities to develop behavioural interventions that lead to more sustainable e-commerce practices
