Explore the European Federation for Transport and Environment AISBL’s new study on investments for sustainable transport in the EU. Here are some key insights:

  • Investment Needs: The EU requires €310 billion annually by 2030 to boost the production of clean transport technologies, and €507 billion annually by 2040 to achieve net-zero by 2050.
  • Private Sector's Role: By 2030, 87% of the investment will come from private investors, including manufacturers, banks, and institutional investors.
  • Public Funding: Europe must allocate €39 billion in public funds each year to stay competitive and ensure green transport technologies are produced locally. This is slightly more than the current €34 billion in fossil fuel subsidies for transport.
  • Electrification of Road Transport: To establish a robust EU battery value chain and deploy electric vehicles and zero-emission trucks, €250 billion is needed annually by 2030.
  • E-Fuels for Aviation and Shipping: Capital investments of €86 billion are required by 2030 for e-fuels in planes and ships.
