Apostolos Tzitzikostas confirmed that combustion engines will continue past 2035, but only in cars running on low-emissions, renewable fuels such as synthetic and biofuels.
It seems to be about e-fuels and HVO. I guess some hope that it will become cheap enough in ten years?
Yes – but that regulation was passed a couple of years ago. The Greens were crucified (figuratively speaking) for it. When somebody pointed out that old internal combustion engines can still be used, and that new can still be sold if the fuel is produced CO2 neutral, no news outlet would print this and nobody would listen. Now, our heroic Bundeskanzler wrote a letter, nothing changed, and he is the hero saving our economy? There’s something rotten in the State South of Denmark. Sorry, William for ruining the meter.
It seems a big part of their strategy was: Block the Greens from doing things. Do the things once back in government.
