Study by Transport & Environment: “Transport can and must be decarbonised by 2050 at the very lates”
Decarbonising the entire European economy will require a holistic approach. Most transport modes can be decarbonised following different pathways. However, they have very different implications for the overall energy system. Unless ways are found to exponentially increase the amount of zero emission electricity at low cost it will remain important to minimise the need for additional clean electricity. This means that an approach focused on using the most efficient pathways (direct charging) wherever possible is recommended. Given the much lower efficiencies of hydrogen but in particular electrofuels, these are optimally used only where no other alternatives exists.
