Daimler Trucks & Buses targets completely CO2-neutral fleet of new vehicles by 2039 in Europe, Japan and NAFTA

Green Car Congress

This can only be achieved if competitive conditions for CO 2 -neutral transport are created for our customers in terms of costs and infrastructure. As of 2021, the eCitaro will come to the market with the next-generation battery and in the second half of 2020 with solid-state batteries (lithium-polymer batteries).

EIA: cellulosic biofuels will likely remain well below EISA targets

Green Car Congress

Strategic corporate shifts because of increased availability of low-cost natural gas. In the final RFS rule (2010), EPA assessed the lifecycle GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions of multiple renewable fuel pathways (defined as feedstock, fuel type, and fuel production process). EPA issues final rule on new advanced and cellulosic biofuels.
