European Mobility Week is kicking off! 🥳 🚗Today marks the start of #EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK, the European Commission’s campaign promoting sustainable urban mobility. As we shift towards cleaner transport solutions, #aluminium is playing a vital role in making EU vehicles lighter, more energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly. #DYK that the average car produced in Europe now contains about 205 kg of aluminium, which is nearly 14% of the vehicle's total weight? With the rise of electric vehicles (#EVs), which use on average about 283 kg of aluminium per car, this lightweight metal is crucial in reducing emissions and enhancing energy efficiency. Aluminium’s role in making cars lighter and more sustainable is set to grow even further, with forecasts predicting a need for nearly 5 million tonnes annually by 2030. Let’s drive the change towards a more sustainable future together!

As we reflect on 2024 the shift toward greener public transportation is gaining speed. What was witnessed in the first half of 2024: - Zero-emission bus registrations grew by an impressive 45%. - Market share climbed from 13.7% to 15.5%, with an even higher share of 17% when including EFTA countries and the UK. This growth reflects the increasing demand for cleaner, more sustainable urban mobility solutions. Cities and countries are stepping up to meet climate goals while delivering quieter, more efficient public transport options. The electric revolution is here — and it’s picking up speed! https://lnkd.in/dzXbPk-N Source: European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA) & Sustainable Bus

Driving Sustainability Forward! Jo White MP visited SharkEye Wheel Aligners’s new Worksop service centre to discuss an impactful idea: making wheel alignment part of the UK’s MOT tests. Here’s why it matters: 2% reduction in the UK’s total emissions Average 8% cut in vehicle fuel consumption Billions saved by motorists annually Less microplastic pollution in waterways Carl Gibson, SharkEye CEO, said: "To achieve the UK’s ambitious climate goals, we must attack this from every angle. Adding wheel alignment to MOTs is a simple, effective way to make a difference." Jo White agrees, calling it a “win-win for motorists and the environment.” Read more about how this could reshape UK transport here: https://lnkd.in/eC-ykH2y #SharkEye #Sustainability #NetZero #WheelAlignment #MOT

According to the most recent regulations, starting in 2035, all new city buses in the European Union will have to be zero-emission vehicles. According to forecasts, electric buses will account for as much as 87% of all buses on the world’s roads by 2050. This is one of the highest electrification rates of any vehicle segment. We know this well and have been consistently following this strategy for nearly two decades. Take a look at our path to e-mobility development! Want to know more about our sustainable product?

Did you know that even old diesel buses can go green and be reconverted to 𝐬𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐛𝐢𝐨-𝐋𝐍𝐆? This is possible thanks to an electric hybrid drive system called 𝐂𝐌𝐅, which combines the advantages of a combustion engine drive with those of an electric drive. The system is entirely powered by bio-LNG and has been implemented for as many as 53 buses at Munich Airport in Germany. Find out more in this interview with Lena Friedmann: https://bit.ly/3DXtXgH Visit www.neobus.bio for further details
