Sustainable transport
Investments in sustainable transport aim to reduce carbon emissions and pollution by promoting the use of public transport, electric vehicles, and non-motorized modes of transport. These investments support the development of efficient and eco-friendly transport systems that contribute to urban planning and public health improvements.
The focus of funds aligned with this category is broad, encompassing electric vehicles and the infrastructure supporting their adoption, as well as investments in public transport systems including rail, ships, and buses. Emphasis is also placed on innovative technologies that promote efficient logistics solutions and low or zero-emission fuels. Such investments are aligned with the broader goal of enhancing environmental sustainability and supporting global efforts like the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 11 which advocates for sustainable cities and communities through improved transport options.
