Have you ever wondered what specific measures are outlined in the European Green Deal that are intended to shape the European Union’s approaches to reducing the environmental impact of the transportation and energy sectors on businesses?
The issue is more complex than one might think, as the European Commission has presented several legislative packages, such as:
1. Relevant to Package 55: The EU's plan for a green transition
2. The Efficient and Green Mobility Package: New transport proposals
3. Hydrogen and Decarbonized Gas Market Package: Hydrogen and decarbonized ..
These previous policy documents are intended to have an impact on businesses across the EU—in various sectors and in various ways—by driving innovation and strengthening the EU’s leadership in climate change adaptation on a global scale.
The main milestones established for the three selected legislative packages are as follows:
Acceleration
Accelerating the deployment of alternative fuel infrastructure in the EU-27.
Transportation +
Promotion of rail and inland waterway transportation for freight and passengers.
