Providing efficient, safe and environmentally friendly transport
Tourism is a huge part of our global culture, allowing us to explore different parts of the world, meet people from different walks of life, and experience new traditions and activities. However, the concept of sustainable travel allows us to enjoy exploring new places without causing great harm to our environment.
In 2021, fossil fuels accounted for almost 93% of the energy used in road and rail transport in the EU.Biofuels are an alternative to fossil fuels to help reduce GHG emissions in the transport sector.
Summer is here, and we tend to fly away from where we live… but aviation isn’t just about holidays – it also plays a crucial
The European Union’s Fit for 55 proposal aims to revise CO2 emission regulations for cars and vans, which currently account for 15% of total EU emissions. The proposal sets progressive targets, including a 100% reduction in emissions for new cars and vans by 2035. The expected benefits include a shift towards zero-emission vehicles, improved air quality, and better health for citizens. Consumers can look forward to increased production and sales of affordable zero-emission vehicles. The automotive industry will experience greater innovation, stronger technological leadership, and job creation in the development of new technologies. The EU’s goal is to accelerate the transition to sustainable mobility and combat climate change effectively.
In our era of the need for environmental sustainability, clean and efficient transportation has become more pressing than ever before. Zero emission vehicles (ZEVs) are
The EU’s ReFuelEU aviation and FuelEU maritime proposals aim to increase sustainable fuel usage in aviation and marine sectors to reduce emissions. They require suppliers to gradually increase sustainable fuel shares, airlines to use sustainable fuels and avoid excess weight, and vessels to reduce greenhouse gas intensity and connect to onshore power. Benefits include a level playing field, increased sustainable fuel production, and eco-responsible transport. The proposals have reached a provisional agreement and await formal approval.
As the world moves towards a more sustainable future, the transportation sector plays a pivotal role in achieving climate neutrality. Recognizing this, the European Union
One of the most contentious issues in the Fit for 55 package of proposals was the carbon dioxide (CO2) emission reduction targets for new cars and vans. At the end of March, the European Council has taken the final decision on the issue.
The European Commission is ready to adopt the new vehicle emission standard called Euro 7.
What steps is Europe taking to sustainable rail transport? We have collected some examples of hybrid battery trains already in operation.
