What are Volt's political goals? / The Future of Europe

Mobility

Volt leads the green Green Wave

Check out our ideas for Green mobility across Europe

Volt is working towards carbon neutrality by 2040 and the transport sector is one of the biggest emitters in the world. That's why we need new policy!

  • Expand the possibilities for public transport in less populated areas.

  • Expand the Danish charging network for electric and hydrogen cars.

  • Tie together Danish cities with super bikepaths.

  • Create bike friendly city zones.

  • Stop the use of fossil fuels in  vehicles on the road in 2035.

  • Support road tolls and city tolls around cities.

  • Reduce speed limits on roads to lower emissions.

  • Improve long and medium distance railroads, more european high speed rail and nighttrains.

  • Only zero emission ships may sail in european waters by 2035.

  • The Fehmarnbelt link enables more freight transport, which means less CO2 emissions and less road damage.

The 5+1 Challenges

Volt has defined 5+1 fundamental Challenges that need to be tackled in each European country and in Europe as a whole.

Why 5 + 1 Challenges?

The 5 Challenges are basically the same for every country, but their implementation can be adapted on the national level to take into account local realities.

The +1 Challenge – our proposal to reform and strengthen the EU – is identical across all our national programmes.
