CINEA awards CEF Transport AFIF grant to 42 projects

CINEA, the European Agency for Climate, Infrastructure and Environment, has selected the projects eligible for CEF Transport AFIF grant. The EU will support 42 projects with more than € 424 million in funding. These 42 projects are aimed at developing and improving alternative fuel infrastructure.

The EU is working hard on realising an alternative fuel infrastructure

Since the launch of the AFIF programme, the European Commission has granted more than € 1.3 billion in grants to countless projects. This has already resulted in 26,396 electric charging points, 202 hydrogen filling stations and the electrification of ground operations of 63 airports. These are some excellent statistics that are truly making a difference in realising a sustainable transport sector!

Background CEF Transport

CEF Transport is the European Commission’s main programme for improving the Trans-European Transport Network. This programme runs from 2021 to 2027, making as much as € 25.81 billion in grant funding available during that period.
