Transport faces fuel dilemma
From 2035, only carbon-neutral cars will be sold in Europe. In this context, e-fuels or electro-fuels are on the agenda. Energy sources need to be diversified, depending on the costs and alternatives available in each sector.

Almost 95 % of final consumption corresponds to road transport, and the remaining 5 % to aviation and the maritime sector.
It is also the second most polluting on the continent and the first at national level. In the EU as a whole, transport accounts for 25% of total greenhouse gas emissions, while in Spain this percentage rises to nearly 30%.
