COLOGNE: Mazda has become the first automotive manufacturer to join the eFuel Alliance.
The alliance brings together organisations and interested parties that support the goal of establishing and promoting CO2-neutral e-fuels and hydrogen as a credible contributor to reducing emissions in the transport sector.
Mazda has always been a strong advocate of a multi-solution approach, that combines different technologies, as the best way forward to reduce emissions.
Electrification is a key pillar within Mazda’s multi-solution strategy and by 2030 all Mazda vehicles will be electrified. However, many vehicles will continue to have an internal combustion engine.
Together with the eFuel Alliance and its members, Mazda supports the establishment of a mechanism that takes into account the contribution of renewable and low-carbon fuels for emissions reduction of passenger cars and will contribute to the decision-making process now that the EU is reviewing its climate legislation.
“As an industry we must reduce emissions as much as possible. And to do this we must not ignore any of the available routes at our disposal," said Wojciech Halarewicz, Vice President Communications & Public Affairs at Mazda Motor Europe GmbH.
"Greenhouse gas emissions and climate change are, by nature, a global and complex issue requiring an integrated approach. All sectors and industries must play their part and, above all, they must have the opportunity to share any positive options to achieving the climate goals.”
