I would like to underline the role of local authorities as dialogue partners and enablers of business endeavors. In the next years, we will witness a change of paradigm. Local authorities have not only the opportunity, but also the obligation to access European funds and to move to a new level of competence, involvement and understanding of the evolution of the business environment. Thus, local authorities become more and
more relevant actors and have the opportunity to work on their true potential.
At European level, we have a diversified understanding of the transition to decarbonizing the transport sector, including mobility but also other types of fuel that enjoy support, such as compressed natural gas, liquefied natural fuels, hydrogen as the fuel of the future. We also have a law that transposes this European directive, a national plan that has set some targets for this infrastructure. It is justified to have a complex approach and to understand that there is no simple and universal solution to solve in a simplistic way this huge challenge which is to decarbonize the transport segment.
