The Energy Taxation Directive was approved in 2003 and has needed a revision for several years. As it deals with member states taxation it needs unanimous approval. A taxation on fossil fuel content is often a cost-effective way to achieve decreased emissions. It has been poorly used, and while many members states, as is the Commission, look at a carbon tax, we have not seen it in practise.

To stay ahead in the global race for the best climate and energy technology solutions, companies need a clear and reliable fit-for-55 implementation plan providing a clear commitment to Europe as an attractive business, investment and innovation location.

The IIA correctly states that "CO2 standards give vehicle manufacturers the legal certainty to invest more in related R&D, to produce more zero-emission vehicles so that with increased supply and economy of scale they can become more affordable for citizens”.

The 2030-secretariate is committed to achieving a 70% CO2 reduction in the Swedish transport sector by 2030 and is thus strongly in favour of heightened ambitions for fuels, vehicles and mobility in the European market. We are eagerly awaiting the EU Smart and Sustainable Mobility Strategy in December - outside the scope of this feed-back, but an area where the Commission needs to step up its act.

The Swedish 2030 secret is an independent Think tank committed to the decree of the transport sector. We are not searched into any specific technological solution, the GHG reduction is what matters.Grow sooner than later — we cannot wait until electric vehicles dominate the light vehicle market in the mid 2030 's. The introduction of CO2 demands on new cars and vans on the European market has been successful.

The “ReFuelEU Aviation” initiative by the EU Commission sends a positive signal for the sustained introduction and roll-out of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) into the market in the pursuit of reducing CO2-emissions in aviation. In order to reach the ambitious CO2-emission reduction targets for the whole transport sector, the use of carbon neutral fuels (e.g.

The Swedish 2030 secretariat is an independent Think tank committed to the decarbonization of the transport sector. We are not looked into any specific technological solution, the GHG reduction is what matters. Rather sooner than later. The sustainability debate for aviation is quite recent, and it is welcome to see a stronger sustainability focus on aviation. The RefuelAviation Directive is an important step.

The sustainability debate for aviation is quite recent, and it is welcome to see a stronger sustainability focus on aviation. The RefuelAviation Directive is an important step. The RefuelAviation Directive is one of two new directives with a focus on strategic parts of the transport sector and are developed without any prior directives to “build on”.

The Swedish 2030-secretariat is an independent Think tank, committed to decarbonization of transport, but not locked into an specific technological solutions. GHG reduction is the target, sooner rather than later. The maritime sector dominates world trade. It is an energy efficient means of transport, but the scale of operations makes it a large contributor to global emissions.
