Clean transport solutions

Ensuring a fair transition to clean, affordable transport

Countries across Europe are moving to slash pollution from vehicle tailpipes, which are responsible for more than a quarter of Europe’s climate footprint and a major source of air pollution in cities. We’re helping ensure that this transition to cleaner transport is fair and effective, benefits our health and environment, and supported by consumers, auto workers, and the rest of society.

To do this, we’re working to promote the shift to electric vehicles (cars, buses, and trucks), while limiting dependence on the mining of critical minerals and the associated negative impacts. We are also striving to secure and create good e-mobility jobs for the future, to ensure continued political support for the transition across Europe. At city level, we support partners across Europe who are working with residents on measures to reduce air pollution and improve health and quality of life.

In parallel, we’re expanding our work on aviation: examining how airlines can shift away from fossil fuels and unsustainable biofuels, and challenging aviation’s cultural dominance and licence to operate where green alternatives exist.
