Green demands clear commitment to the combustion engine until 2035!
In a current debate, the Greens in the Bundestag are calling for a clear signal for the future of mobility in Germany: the adherence to the out of the combustion engine until 2035. This reported . The corresponding application (21/786) is on the agenda on Thursday. The arguments are complex and aim to ensure planning security for consumers and industries as well as to make an important contribution to climate protection.
The group of new vehicles with combustion engines, which has already been decided by the EU, sees the parliamentary group as necessary to improve air quality in cities and reduce noise. In addition, the running costs of the vehicles should remain affordable for the citizens. The Greens emphasize that it is also necessary to create affordable and climate -friendly vehicles for the mass market. There is a clear rejection of plug-in hybrids and conventional fuels that are classified as harmful to the environment
important climate goals in the focus
The next step towards reducing emission will be crucial to reach the climate goals for 2040. According to an analysis by Transport & Environment are the EU-CO2 fleet limit values Planned combustion engine is of central importance in order to reduce total emissions by 90 % compared to 1990 by 2040. The study also shows that by a clear focus on the electrification of the vehicle fleets and the relocation of traffic to the rails, significant savings are possible.
The way to the climate target cannot only be achieved by reducing the emissions of the new vehicles. The prevention of a decline in public transport and the increase in fuel prices could also have a significant impact on the savings. It is directly pointed out that the waiver of old combustion engines and the switch to electric cars and public transport could save an additional 7 % of emissions.
future of the automotive industry
The importance of the automotive industry for Germany remains undisputed. It is considered a key industry that can ensure both international competitiveness and subsequent innovations in the field of electromobility with this change. Holding on the internal combustion engine could not only endanger environmental policy goals, but also reduce the position of this important industry in the global race for innovative technologies.
In addition, there are demands on the federal government to clearly commit themselves to the European fleet limit values and to support them with corresponding tax framework and granting for the production of 15 million purely electrical electric cars by 2030. These suggestions include investments in charging infrastructure, favorable (charging) electricity as well as social purchase and leasing incentives for low-consumption electric cars to facilitate switching to e-mobility, according to the analysis of the Environmental Federal Agency .
The Bundestag faces a pioneering decision that affects both the time of the changeover and the associated strategies for the mobility of the future. It remains exciting to observe how the political gems develop and what measures are actually implemented in order to achieve the ambitious climate goals and to change mobility sustainably.
