Today many people are interested in vehicles that use alternative fuels or advanced technologies that can help reduce operating costs, meet emissions requirements, support sustainability and energy independence. Vehicle manufacturers are responding to this interest with a wide range of options across a steadily growing number of vehicle applications. The EU wants to phase out conventionally fueled vehicles by 2050 and move to-wards carbon neutral urban logistics by 2030. To achieve this ambitious objective, it developed legislation and provided financial incentives to encourage cities to use alternatively fueled vehicles and create related infrastructure. Nowadays many medium-sized cities in EU started to adopt policies promoting the use of alternative fuel vehicles. In Xanthi, northern Greece, local authorities recently developed policies promoting the use of electric vehicles as they upgraded their fleet and started using them in public services. However, there are additional actions that can be implemented for vehicle use with non-conventional and advanced fuels from residents and visitors. This project aims in an effort to face the problem with the aid of an analysis based on counts and questionnaires in different locations of Xanthi.
