Abstract In recent years, road transportation of goods and people have been constantly increasing. As a result of population growth and economic development, the transportation industry has a need for larger amounts of energy. Many countries, including Greece, are emphasizing the promotion of electric mobility to reduce emissions. Also, a goal to achieve in the future is to produce the electricity needed through renewable sources. In addition, the Sustainable Urban/Island Mobility Plans, Electric Vehicle Charging Systems and other programs such as Daphne and Green Deal are applied to ensure the smooth integration of electric mobility in Greece. The present paper investigates through a questionnaire survey the development of sustainable network for people and goods transportation in Skiathos Island. Based on the sample responses, data analysis was performed with descriptive and inferential statistical analysis. It is concluded that there is a will to purchase an electrical vehicle, taking into consideration the existence of the appropriate infrastructure. Also, respondents were keen on autonomous vehicles regarding public transportation. The sustainable proposals for the transportation of goods seem to be of high interest to the businessmen of the island.
