Transport & Environment (T&E) is Europe’s leading advocate for clean transport and energy. Our mission is to fight for an affordable zero-emission transport system that benefits both people and the planet. Since our formation in 1990, we’ve shaped some of Europe’s most important climate and environmental laws, such as the creation of the world’s largest carbon market for aviation and the EU agreement to ban the sale of new combustion engine cars and vans by 2035.

In 2024, the UK government introduced a zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) mandate aiming for 80% of new car sales to be ZEVs by 2030 and 100% by 2035. Championing this world-leading policy, Transport & Environment UK played a key role. While the mandate secures long-term EV transition, challenges remain, including economic pressures, widespread EV misinformation, and inconsistent government policies that hinder progress toward a fully electric vehicle market
