Mission and Objectives

The mission and objectives of AMF have been developed through a number of Strategic Plans. The third and most recent one, covering the years 2005 to 2009, was approved by IEA’s Committee on Energy Research and Technology (CERT) in June 2004.

	End-of-Term Report 2004
	Strategic Plan 2005-2009

Vision of AMF:

To see the results of AMF projects contributing to the growing market penetration of advanced motor fuels and the widespread deployment of sustainable technologies for transport, as the basis for reducing emissions, improving energy efficiency and energy security and leading to a sustainable transport sector around the world.

Mission of AMF:

AMF is one of the key players in the promotion of international collaboration in R&D, deployment and dissemination of clean, energy-efficient and sustainable fuels and related vehicle technology. It will continue to provide a fuel neutral platform for co-operative R&D, deployment and dissemination, make use of the multifaceted expertise of its partners and networks, and provide a respected clearing-house for information facilitating the wide spread deployment of technologies for sustainable transport. We foresee increased need for cooperation and collaboration with other transport-related Implementing Agreements, such as Bioenergy, HEV, and Combustion. Together with new AMF member countries we are able to address a more diverse set of challenges in technology and local conditions. We also work actively for energy conservation in transport. (Strategic Plan 2009-2013).

AMF has defined three Strategic Objectives:

Objective 1 (Information, Dissemination and Membership): To gather, evaluate and disseminate information on advanced motor fuels and to act as a clearing-house on related information. Provide an easy-access platform for interested parties to become member of AMF.

Objective 2 (Cooperative R&D): To create, maintain and make use of networks among partners involved in research, development, and demonstration related to advanced motor fuels.

Objective 3 (Markets and Deployment): To facilitate large-scale market deployment of advanced motor fuels by contributing to the removal of technical and economic barriers and by providing solid data to decision makers. (Strategic Plan 2009-2013).
