✈️ By combining existing policy levers, EU Member States can narrow the cost gap between fossil kerosene and the sustainable aviation fuels needed to meet EU targets: ➡️ Cellulosic fuels made from solid waste or agricultural residues ➡️ E-kerosene produced through electrolytic hydrogen + captured CO₂

Can “technology-neutral” policies support Europe’s EV transition — or are they a convenient myth? 🚗⚡ These questions sit at the heart of today’s political discussions in Europe’s electric vehicle transition, particularly when talking about plug-in hybrids.
