🌱 World Sustainable Transport Day is the perfect time to reflect on the future of Eco-friendly Railway. At Deutsche Bahn (DB), sustainability isn’t just a goal—it’s a driving force. In Germany, DB has been operating the long-distance fleet with 100% green electricity since 2018 as part of its mission to reduce carbon emissions. Projects like the electrification of the Eifel Line between Cologne and Trier are prime examples of how DB continues to push for greater efficiency and lower environmental impacts while other technologies such as batteries and hydrogen are deployed on lines where conventional electrification is not the best choice. It is not just happening in Germany! DB E.C.O. North America brings the same innovative spirit and expertise to the U.S. and Canadian networks. With our Center for Net Zero Transformation in Rail and Transit, we are helping rail agencies adopt zero-emission solutions, including electrification, batteries, hydrogen fuel cell, and strategic combinations of all three. Through tailored approaches to all aspects of sustainable transitions; from vehicles to fueling infrastructure, maintenance programs, and operational strategies, DB E.C.O. North America is helping reshape rail systems. To learn more, visit: db-eco.us.

Managing Director at Avalon Green | Speaker | Entrepreneur | On a mission to decarbonise the road freight sector
Transport decarbonisation is undoubtedly the linchpin for securing a sustainable future, striving to markedly diminish the carbon footprint of our transportation networks. At its essence, this forward-thinking initiative seeks to supplant traditional fossil fuel-powered conveyances with cleaner, more efficacious alternatives such as electric vehicles (EVs) and hydrogen-powered modes of transport. This transition is of paramount importance, considering that the transportation sector constitutes a significant proportion of global carbon dioxide emissions, thereby exerting a profound influence on climate change. Electric lorries, such as the 100% electric models pioneered by Scania and Volvo, epitomise the remarkable progress being made towards greener urban logistics, offering an environmentally benign solution to freight transportation. However, technological advancements alone are insufficient; achieving transport decarbonisation necessitates comprehensive policy support, substantial investments in renewable energy infrastructure, and widespread behavioural transformation. It entails reimagining our urban landscapes, with efficient public transportation networks, ubiquitous charging stations, and sustainable city planning at the forefront. The manifold benefits of this paradigm shift include cleaner air, reduced noise pollution, and enhanced public health, thus contributing to a more resilient and equitable world. Moreover, adopting sustainable transportation practices can lead to significant cost savings through optimised energy and fuel usage, ensuring compliance with stringent environmental regulations. While uncertainties about the long-term benefits and return on investment of these measures may exist, the evidence is increasingly clear: sustainable practices are integral to winning more contracts and enhancing a company's reputation in the industry. Collectively, we possess the capacity to pave the way for a carbon-neutral future, thereby transforming the manner in which we move and live. By embracing the principles of transport decarbonisation, companies can drive meaningful change, ensuring that progress and sustainability are inextricably linked for the benefit of future generations. Championing this vision is essential to making sustainability a cornerstone of business strategy, leading to long-term success and a thriving future for both the company and the planet.
