External experts commissioned by T&E find no EU-wide or national requirements on technology transfer and breaches of air pollution rules from battery factories in Poland and Hungary. T&E calls on clear foreign investment rules and a comprehensive European strategy for battery supply chains. Despite receiving 900 million in state aid.
Denmark leads the way when it comes to putting zero-emission urban buses on the streets in Europe, with 78% of new vehicles being electric, according to the latest data from green NGO Transport & Environment. Italy, Poland, Germany, the UK, Spain and France, which buy 70% of the urban buses sold in Europe, lag behind.
The number of battery-electric buses ordered in Europe more than doubled in 2017 compared to 2016, reaching 1,031 vehicles, according to a new analysis by environmental NGO Transport & Environment. The Netherlands, UK, France, Poland and Germany account for more than half the total number of electric buses in Europe (including orders).
Transport emissions could double their current relative net contribution to global warming by 2100, according to a new study by researchers at the Oslo-based Centre for International Climate and Environment Research (CICERO) in Norway. Road transport gives the largest contribution and will most likely continue to do so in the future.
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across the European Union rose slightly in 2017, mostly because of the transport sector. Preliminary estimates published in the European Environment Agency’s (EEA) annual trends and projections assessments show a 0.6% The rise is mostly due to the increase of oil consumption from road transport.

The three-year project, titled THE ISSUE (‘Traffic- Health-Environment. Intelligent Solutions Sustaining Urban Economies’), brings together research clusters from five European regions: the East Midlands in the United Kingdom, the Molise region in Italy, the Midi-Pyrenees and Aquitaine regions in France and the Mazovia region in Poland.
Indexed European transport sector greenhouse gas emissions, 1990-2006. Transport continues to contribute disproportionally to Europe’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, poor air quality and noise, and still uses the least efficient modes to move people and goods according to a new report from the European Environmental Agency (EEA).
The selected projects are located in Bulgaria, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland and Sweden. Another one located in Poland will create an end-to-end carbon capture and storage chain starting from CO? capture and liquefaction at a cement plant to storage in offshore sites.
The European Community’s air pollutant emission inventory report released by the European Environment Agency finds that in 2007, sulphur oxides (SO x ) emissions were down by 72 % from 1990 levels. Other findings of the report include: The road transport sector remains a major source of air pollution in the EU-27.
Main modes of transport. A slim majority (53%) of EU citizens said they used a car as their main mode of transport and about one in five (22%) used public transport. Women more frequently said they usually walked (16% vs. 9% of men) or used public transport (25% vs. 18%). Level of support for pay-as-you-drive schemes.
None of the EEA scenarios considered delivered the targeted reduction in transport GHG emissions. Based on analysis of long-term trends, a new European Environment Agency (EEA) report calls for a clear vision defining Europe’s transport system by 2050 and consistent policies to achieve it.

Originally published on Transport & Environment. By Eoin Bannon Low-income families could be hit with diesel price hikes of 50c a litre, and a doubling of home heating bills, on average, in 2030 if the EU relies only on carbon markets to achieve emissions cuts in road transport and homes, new research published today shows.
