The "Delivering the European Green Deal" initiative by the European Commission is a comprehensive strategy aimed at achieving climate neutrality in the EU by 2050. Central to this effort is the ‘Fit for 55’ legislative package, which seeks to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030. Key components include setting revised targets for renewable energy and energy efficiency, enhancing the emissions trading system, and introducing the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism to ensure fair competition.

The initiative also aims to phase out polluting vehicles by 2035, expand alternative fuel infrastructure, and support vulnerable citizens and small businesses through the Social Climate Fund. As a pillar of the European Green Deal, this strategy highlights the EU’s leadership in global climate action and commitment to a sustainable future. It emphasizes innovation, regulatory improvements, and international collaboration in tackling climate change and promoting a green economy.
