Toxic air pollutans caused by cruise ships around the world are now back to levels of the pre-pandemic, leaving many of Europe’s port cities with an issue of air pollution, as  shown by a new Transport and Environment study. One of the town’s most prevalent is Southampton in the UK with it ranking seventh highest in the world for most-polluted port from cruise ship air pollution. This is such a big issue that it is

French-based multinational pioneer in sustainable mobility Alstom has now signed a collaboration with Air Products, the world’s largest hydrogen supplier with the goal of encouraging development of zero-emission transportation solutions in Poland. The agreement sees Air Products distribute and store hydrogen whilst providing hydrogen-refuelling infrastructure while Alstom will provide hydrogen fuel cell-powered trains. This endeavour is a continuation of Air Product’s cooperation with Alstom with the intent being to deploy low-carbon hydrogen to decarbonise rail

As of March 2023, global temperatures are 1.1 degrees celcius above the preindustrial periods. With the rise of this temperature also comes the rise in concentration of CO2 in our air, with the current concentration being higher than it has been for over 1 million years. The CBO released a report on the emissions of the transport sector. This report stated that in the United States the largest sources of emissions of carbon dioxide is

The German ministry of digital and transportation plans to invest 1b into climate friendly transport vehicles. This annoucement comes after four times as many applicants for funding were received since 2021. Germany is currently aiming to have 75% of new vehicles be emissions free by the year 2030. The increase in funding will support a staggering 7000 climate friendly vehicles and 3000 refuelling charging points. Applications for funding will next begin in Q3 of 2023.

The future of commercial transport is taking a very significant turn as electric trucks and vans gain a large amount of momentum in the market. This comes at a time in which concern for the enivronment and the movement to reduce carbon emissions is at an all time high with the transition toward electric vehicles away from gas based vehicles becomes ever closer. Electric trucks and vans bring great advantages especially, alongside the excellent low

Yutong Bus are a leading manufacturer of electric buses and they have now launced YEA, an integrated control technology platform made to control energy commercial vehicles. This software comes with the hopes of revolutionising the new Chinese energy commercial vehicle sector. Alongside the launch of YEA, Yutong announced and showcased a complete lineup of 15 new energy products including buses, trucks and special vehicles with a big focus on travel, logistics and operations scenarios that

NECPs are 10-years planning tools (2021 to 2030) with which member states define how they are going to contribute to the achievement of the European Union’s climate and energy objectives and which policies and measures they will put in place to reach those objectives. Following the ramp-up of the EU’s climate ambition (EU Climate Law, Fit for 55), EU countries are called to refresh their National Energy and Climate Plans with a first draft to

Hydrogen jets could be cheaper to run than fossil fuel planes from 2035 provided kerosene is taxed adequately, a new study shows[1],[2]. In 2035, running planes on hydrogen could be 8% more expensive than using kerosene. But with a tax on fossil jet fuel and a price on carbon, hydrogen planes could become 2% cheaper to operate than their kerosene counterparts. These pricing measures are key to the deployment of green technologies like hydrogen planes,
