As the European Union advances binding decarbonisation measures across transport, the role of e-fuels has become one of the most contested issues in EU energy and climate policy. Aviation is preparing for the gradual introduction of synthetic fuel obligations under ReFuelEU Aviation, while maritime transport faces a more fragmented transition under FuelEU Maritime, alongside difficult and unresolved negotiations at the
By the Green Mobility Magazine in partnership with the eFuel Alliance. A new study by the eFuel Alliance, developed with Porsche Consulting, argues that the debate over e-fuels in Europe should shift from technological feasibility to industrial deployment. In an interview with the Green Mobility Magazine, CEO Ralf Diemer said the report assesses the global potential of e-fuels and their
Q: How would you assess the automotive supply industry’s progress on sustainability in recent years? Automotive suppliers are committed to achieving climate neutrality in their European operations (Scope 1 and 2) by 2040 and across the value chain (Scope 3) by 2050. This ambition is backed by concrete action. Between 2023-2024, the group of largest automotive suppliers have collectively reduced

By Thomas Jeremie Hayden-Lefebvre & Swyn Griffith – Green Mobility Magazine An interview with Andor Deli, former Member of the European Parliament and Hungary’s national coordinator for the EU–Western Balkan Green Lanes Initiative. Andor Deli, former Member of the European Parliament and Hungary’s national coordinator for the EU–Western Balkan Green Lanes Initiative, discusses border efficiency, freight flows, and the role of transport policy in the EU’s enlargement process. You grew up in a region shaped by external borders and administrative constraints. How did those early experiences influence your understanding of mobility not only as a technical issue, but as a political and economic one? During my childhood, back in the 1980s, travel was almost always associated with queuing at border crossings. I vividly remember spending long hours sitting in a car under the blazing summer sun or in the freezing cold of winter, waiting to cross. Later, as a student,
As of January 2025, the maritime transport sector is significantly impacted by the FuelEU Maritime Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2023/1805) (“Regulation” or “FEUM”), adopted on September 13, 2023. This Regulation imposes stringent restrictions on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from large ships within its scope and constitutes a fundamental cornerstone of the European Union’s strategy to transition towards sustainable transportation and achieve full decarbonisation of the transport sector by 2050. The year 2025 will be pivotal for shipping companies, as they will be required to integrate these new regulatory requirements into their business operations. This will not only have economic repercussions but will also necessitate revisions to contractual relationships. Maritime operators must ensure that existing contracts reflect the Regulation’s new obligations and incorporate the mechanisms established by the EU to facilitate compliance. Before addressing the contractual implications, it is useful to provide a brief overview of the Regulation’s key provisions. The Legal
In the first half of 2025, key European industries face an inflection point, with the new political forces in the European Union attempting to shape the path ahead. The future of transport policy—laid out in the Green Industrial Deal and the Action Plan released following the Strategic Dialogue on the Future of the Automotive Industry—is at a crossroads. Policymakers must decide whether to embrace the opportunities of decarbonisation or double down on the energy sources of the past. As policy negotiations advance, investors and real economy companies will have the opportunity to influence key steps towards meeting Europe’s climate goals. As long-term institutional investors, asset owners hold an influential position in the financial system. Pension funds, insurance companies, and sovereign wealth funds can impact the behaviour of their asset managers, the companies in which they invest, and policymakers and regulators across a wide range of sectors. Over the past few

Europe’s exposure to hybrid threats reaches into the systems that preserve food, store blood products, transport passengers, and maintain communications. Over recent weeks, refrigeration cyberattacks have forced supermarkets to discard stock and threatened plasma stored by France’s blood service. Bomb threats have prompted aircraft diversions, military escorts, and security searches. Investigations into attacks on satellite communications infrastructure have led to
France’s preparations for a major European conflict depend on keeping civilian services functioning while deploying armed forces abroad and responding to disruption at home. Parliamentary testimony exposes the practical tension: the personnel, infrastructure, and suppliers needed for military mobilisation also sustain the economy on which that mobilisation depends. A National Assembly defence committee report brings together hearings conducted in May
By Dariusz Dybka, Director, von Kietz The Warsaw Security Forum (WSF) 2026 was a chance to rethink how Europe talks about security and how it delivers it. But first, the EU and NATO need to define what security as a common good means, and how far its geographical scope extends. With a long confrontation with Russia, hybrid threats, and growing
On Saturday, my family and I watched from our balcony as CRS riot police confronted protesters and, subsequently, rioters outside the government building opposite our flat. Our exposure was necessarily limited, but the distinction between those who had come to express their dissatisfaction and those who had come to cause violence was quite clear. The procession itself, the cortège, followed
Over the past two weeks, a series of security incidents has affected critical and strategic infrastructure across Europe. Rail disruption, drone incursions, incidents affecting airports and border infrastructure, fires and attempted attacks involving defence-industrial sites, and increasingly serious military encounters have all formed part of the European security picture. These events have different circumstances and, where established, different attributions. They
