The CAP-IT project is a proposed strategic initiative aimed at transforming Samoa’s transportation sector into a sustainable, low-carbon system by integrating renewable energy solutions, particularly electric vehicles (EVs) and low-carbon maritime transport. The project addresses both environmental and social challenges by reducing the country’s carbon emissions from the transport sector, a significant contributor to Samoa's overall emissions, while enhancing connectivity and improving public transport infrastructure.
