⚡80% of the European railway traffic is running on electricity.
Given the high electrification rate, the rail sector is highly vulnerable to price shocks.

By 2030, Europe could have 1.000.000 more trucks on the roads.
The solution to reduce emissions in long-distance freight transport already exists today:
➡️ the use of sustainable and intermodal modes of transport such as rail freight.
