The study has to analyze the connections between Puglia and Molise (DELIVERABLE D. T1. 3. 1) from an environmental point of view in terms of reduction of polluting emissions. 

The evaluation is based on the bus services implemented within ON CLOUD NINE project.

The environmental impacts, taking into account the specific topic of the SOLAR project, is evaluated by measuring the CO2 emissions as carbon footprint. The methodology used for this problem is the Airport Carbon Accreditation scheme (hereinafter ACA).

ON CLOUD NINE is another project of the Interreg IPA CBC Italy-Albania-Montenegro 2014-2020 Programme.

The Molise Region first carried out a feasibility study on the existing connections between the Bari airport and the city of Campobasso, then implementing a multimodal road connection.

The coordination of the service schedule with the flights for Tirana represents an interesting proposal for passengers with Albania as destination, but the main issue is the low number of flights option at disposal with this bus services schedule.
