+title: Materials + transport representation in MESSAGEix
+description: |-
+  These are the data required to parametrize a representation of materials use
+  in the transport sector, i.e. the integration of MESSAGEix-Materials and
+  MESSAGEix-Transport.

+      Three families of battery chemistries for current fleet of vehicles (NCA, NMC, LFP)
+      Possibly, think about two battery chemistries that may be used in the future. Candidates:
+        - Li-air
+        - Li-S

+      Confirm with Paul which vehicle segments are available in MESSAGEix-Transport
+      I suppose: micro, medium, SUV. I might be wrong. To each vehicle segment
+      a given battery size has to be assigned, based on current real fleet data
+      and then projected until 2050
