Provisional agreement reached on European CO2 standards for heavy-duty trucks; 30% lower by 2030

Green Car Congress

With the first-ever EU emission standards for trucks agreed, we are completing the legal framework to reach the European target of cutting greenhouse gas emissions by at least 40% by 2030. Data shows that currently there is no public charging or refueling infrastructure suitable for electric or hydrogen trucks whatsoever.

The Case for Nuclear Cargo Ships

Cars That Think

Hedging its bets, the industry is exploring ammonia, batteries, and hydrogen, among other options for powering ships. At the same time, it’s becoming apparent that alternative-fuel solutions we’re looking at have big drawbacks, and that producing these fuels will take a lot of green power that will be needed to replace coal and gas on shore.

ITF: measures to decrease road freight CO2 emissions

Green Car Congress

Naturally, much of the discussion on the cost-benefit comparison of decarbonizing alternatives—particularly on alternative fuel solutions for long- haul heavy trucks—is based on assumptions about future technological developments that are uncertain. It is critical that these standards include heavy freight trucks.
