Making CO2-neutral transport work. All stakeholders must be aware that it takes three factors for CO2-neutral transport to be successful. The right vehicle technology based on battery and hydrogen-powered fuel cells is just one factor. We need two more: a comprehensive infrastructure and economic competitiveness. Transport companies must be able to easily charge CO2-neutral vehicles and to earn money with them. It’s much like a multiplication problem: If just one of the three factors is zero, the whole result is zero. To provide factor one – reliable CO2-neutral vehicles – is the task of OEMs like us. To provide factor two – a comprehensive infrastructure – is mainly up to energy companies. However, given the size of this task additional support by the government (conceptually and financially) is required. Factor three – economic competitiveness – clearly needs to be taken care of by the government: A CO2-based toll as well as predictable increases in CO2 taxes on diesel fuel are necessary to offset the significant cost disadvantage of CO2-neutral trucks. All in all it’s obvious that only by working together can we make CO2-neutral transport a success. That’s why it’s so important to us at Daimler Trucks & Buses – and to me personally – to foster the requisite collaboration.
