and we've got some hot tips for your package from madison to check on some great cultural memorials to boot w travel regarding the how do you want to move towards the future? would you prefer to fly to work and head to the supermarket and an air taxi or to be catapulted through a hyper loop in a vacuum to racing at 1000 kilometers an hour? they're countless ways. we could move around sustainably, traffic jams, air pollution, noise, and overcrowding could be

a thing of the past. if we think outside the box and embrace novel ways of getting from point a to point b electric bikes already a good start. but in this episode, we will explore how we can bid farewell to heavy polluters. we will look at the battery powered trains of the future and silent trucks that could soon become the norm. welcome to made data of use business magazine. i'm not easy now. the trains are excellent choice for climate friendly travel. at least that's the common perception. but more than half of all trains in europe are actually still powered by diesel, so they aren't much more environmentally friendly than cars. electric trains are much more sustainable, but those are expensive to build and not always practical. the solution. europe's 1st battery power train. the future of european

regional transportation is already a reality in tuscany, italy. this is why i had taught cheese blues train runs powered by batteries. it's the, you know what you've projects because it's the 1st the try be trained in the world able to run on electrify section is that trade? but also as a diesel ordered by 13, the new blues trains are built in hitachi is bestowing a plant in northern it today. they were also developed to with input from company headquarters in japan, engineer marco saki and these teams started planning during the time that makes almost 40 trains of now been delivered to the q developing who was to mix it by 30 and the so uh, so instead of uh, just to developing a standard visit during the introduction of the,

of the box 30 together with the diesel was the somehow the is up to the technology use the, the strongly allow to reduce the fuel consumption to batteries of fitted to each carriage compared to conventional diesel trains 50 percent less fuel is consumed the batteries can be reached. josh, while the train runs even the braking energy use used for this similar to an electric car. and on the sections of trucks, the ball electrified overhead lines provide the power. the diesel engines are still needed, but soon the trains will be able to run completely without fuel. in 2013, approximately 3000 new 3 and for about 30 are we the n hybrid solution? we'd be replaced on the market. so we have with the solution of a hybrid the we are developing the solution in brady in more than one year. so we did before about 33 and so definitely deliveries. and we believe that to be caesar

very smart and safe to the needs of the market, the for the area where there is and knowing that there's a gauge, especially in europe, rural areas and such as tuscany. there's a lot of overhead lines electrifying the round network. it's expensive and it's not worth it in the country side. the small intestine village of border go central and so is about an hour away from florence. most of the trains here on noisy and t, but for a few months now, the new blues trains have been running here, which switch off the diesel engine when they enter and leave the stations. and passengers noticed a difference and more dirty bad so the trains are totally different. so it's more stable that they make a very good impression in february child. and maybe in fact off the my, the steps this train is much more comfortable on. it's always on time

and some of the people in tuscany are also aware that the new trains are more environmentally friendly. just this folder, a huge floods in the area due to climate change. we believe that in the medium term with about 30 is, are the best answer to the needs of a reduction of the pollution and the reduction of see what do we know that our competitors are for we think also another solution. so a happy to phase a solution like hydrogen, for reasons we are studying these one in the in jump on mainly in just a facing the phase. one advantage of the batteries that can be installed into existing conventional trains and in the city trains will soon be using them to i will tentative to flight not only hitachi and tuscany, but also the demons in gemini and us domain friends. a working flocked out on the new technology. it won't be long before these. all similar trains can be seen all

over year. a battery powered trains are one solution to the climate crisis. electric vehicles or another. they are the cars of the future. and china is one of the biggest markets for them. the german legacy carmakers like volkswagen and bmw are losing ground. their electric cars aren't as popular in china as local brands. it turns out that's simply really good engineering isn't good enough for the cars of the future. this is how the german car industry presents itself on the chinese market for decades of $1000000000.00 business for bmw vw, n mercedes and the biggest car market in the world. manufacturers in china account for more than a 3rd of sales of combustion engine cars, lots of market is shrinking. china has a huge lead and the development of electric cars. can german carmakers still catch up?

chinese automakers dominate the domestic market for eaves with over 60 percent. the largest foreign manufacturers are general motors with a market share of around 9 percent and test with 7 percent followed by folks finding with just 3 percent. so many needs to reinvent itself in order to stay competitive internationally and uh, it will not be the motive production. germany cannot compete with oh, what china has invested. but the german carmakers are not ready to accept this. they have yet to give up the fight for a leading position in electro mobility. research and development centers are now being set up in china to make up for the technical backlog. the engineer is know how aims to advance the production of german factories in china and in germany. china has certainly become quite innovative and german comp make us want to tap

into that. they want to tap into the local know how when it comes to software development when it comes to battery development. volkswagen, mercedes and b, m. w, are investing more than 5000000000 heroes to initiate cooperation with the chinese partners. although the german brands are popular with chinese car buyers, they're not selling the biggest problem, the digitalization of vehicles. and they also need to catch up when it comes to our tournament striving technologies. but it's not just in china. manufacturers and germany also have to invest heavily, for example, to expand battery production for electric cars. 50000000000 euros are to be spent by 2035. the strategy german carmakers must use the billions and profits from the combustion engine business to finance their technological development on the one hand and to wind down outdated production and the other.

the one company is german companies. past success probably depended on traditional gasoline cars. they're reluctant to leave the successful power service as a new company, we don't have such problems. we don't have to dispose of any legacy issues, so we can move forward more quickly. china is now the world's biggest car, ex border. it has overtaken japan and germany from the top spots. the chinese manufacturer is like d y d benefit from the fact that the entire value chain is in one hand from battery to car production. to as low as one of the most popular e v brands worldwide with a market share of around 18 percent followed by the chinese manufacturers b y b and s a i c b, w is only in 4th place with over 7 percent followed by the chinese manufacturer

keeley ball phone. ready german car manufacturers are focusing on the chinese market. the next few years will show whether that strategy works news, and now onto the make up polluters, trucks and europe. trucks are responsible for 2 thirds of c o. 2 emissions caused by traffic. but despite their great harm, sustainable alternatives are still few and far between. what's the best option for making trucking greener? let's have a look to think of all this stuff you come into contact with and one day this stuff didn't come out of nowhere. in most cases and made a journey that cross city limits or even country borders and one leg of the trips

likely involved one of these, you could call trucks the backbone of commerce. unfortunately, the way they work right now is very unhealthy for the planet. our best bet is to make these 0 emissions and that means electric motors. they can be powered with 2 options. you already know from the car industry, batteries and hydrogen. so which system will when the rates for the truck of the future? or do we need both if you talked about 0 emission structure just a few years ago, you might have been left out of the room. the word of any preconceived notions about what the batteries could do, what batteries were. so batteries are expensive. battery server, heavy battery start to be. the idea was that the mass of batteries needed to power these big trucks would compromise how much cargo they could carry. transporting heavy loads would make the batteries run out mit journey. freight operators often have tied profit margins. time is money and they don't really want to waste it on

hours of charging. so the focus shifted to fuel cells. these devices essentially work like batteries that run on stored hydrogen and oxygen from the air that can produce enough electricity to power a truck. and they're only by product or heat and water. of course, it takes a lot of energy to produce pure hydrogen, so that it can be used as fuel. but even then a hydrogen truck produces up to 33 percent your emissions across its life cycle. then it's diesel counterpart, the savings are much greater if the hydrogen is produced with renewable energy. that's fairly happening. simply speaking, hydrogen trucks can reduce emissions without compromising carbo capacity or requiring long brakes. refueling a hydrogen truck, as long as the same, then reassuring your diesel trucks. so at 1st sight hydrogen fuel cells look like a slam dunk solution for trucks. but here's the thing. all these assumptions about

batteries are expensive or heavy already kind of outdated. what has happened in the past few years is let's say my batteries have become much cheaper very quickly and their energy density has improved. that means a truck can get much more range from the same sized battery pack. researchers are also working on megawatt charging systems for heavy duty trucks. the aim to reduce the charging time from several hours to little as 15 minutes. this would allow truck drivers to charge the vehicle during their mandated driving brake. what's one of the pendulum in favor of battery electric motors was high school investment? any of these like these? because when it comes to greener, passenger cars, most governments and producers are bidding on batteries as a whole kind of whole, emotive industry really, which is bringing down the cost of veterans, but only a small industry, relatively small number of players working on engineering of fuel cells and

a $100.00 and storage and audio delivery, battery power trucks also have the advantage that they're cheaper to operate than hydrogen trucks, because they're more efficient you'll see to power of fuel. so with green hydrogen, you need to turn electricity into hydrogen. transport that to refueling stations and pump it into a fuel cell, which then turns it back into electricity. roughly 60 percent of energy is lost on the way. compare the to a fully electric truck. it needs energy to charge a battery, which then powers the motor only about 20 percent of last. the fact that the battery electric trucks are cheaper to operate and makes a huge difference. it compensates for the investment upfront to buy the vehicle, which is high higher than for fuel cell trucks. so if you look at the total cost of ownership, the sum of all the expenses for a vehicle across its life cycle, battery powered trucks come out looking pretty good. they could become even cheaper than diesel trucks before 2030. it can be powered by an electricity mix of fossil

fuels and renewables. that saves about 63 percent and emissions. they're powered with clean energy only that saves 92 percent. as battery technologies develop rapidly, the specs, the question is the race between electric and hydrogen trucks already over. and what does that mean? in most countries, battery power trucks still represent less than one percent of sales. a projection say they will make up a vast majority of the european market by 2050 manufacturers like time learned folder for betting on hydrogen or not bidding on it instead of batteries. but in addition to batteries, hydrogen truck producers basically one another like to stand on their bedding. the battery powered trucks will never develop enough to carry extremely heavy loads across several thousands of kilometers. because more cargo requires more energy. when fresh hood is the weight, not the space to be transported, then we'd have for an advantage for hydrogen trucks. at that point, opponents a,

that's a very nice application toward a whole separate system. are you going to make your, for your infrastructure, you're filling sections and everything available on a small proportion of trucking? so are there ways to make battery powered trucks more viable for very heavy cargo and long journeys? operators could swap out the battery packs instead of waiting to recharge them. that would probably require industry wide cooperation and battery swap system. so that brings us to our next point infrastructure. it needs to expand a lot for either technology if the real mission trucks are to take over a hydrogen refueling stations are still extremely scarce within pyar regions in europe, not having any at all. when it comes to u. v charging there is more solid infrastructure in place for passenger cars, but the kind of high power charging the trucks need is almost completely mistaken. and the european union, that's where this law could come into play. it's that specific targets for member

states to the point where charging and refueling stations in the coming years. so we see the big companies are now springing up to say, like, all right, we're going to cover that needed because we see that these business will come, right? because the regulatory decisions, the policy rates certainty for us to make this investment, the same needs to happen to spur manufacturers and to mass producing 0 emissions trucks. except the moment not enough are being produced for fleet operators to make the switch so that you is looking to revise that c o 2 standards for trucks. while it does, we put an end to internal combustion engines. the proposal once new, heavy duty vehicles to mit 90 percent less by 2040 votes, battery and fuel cell trucks need to tackle their infrastructure and supply. but there is one charge specific to hydrogen trucks, and that's the price of fuel. we need to commercialize the production of products. and currently when you're talking about reading hydrogen, producing hydrogen at the very small scale. when you exhaust your production site,

you can bring costs down. so the following price of hydrogen is yet another may be in a long list of uncertainties. during this transition. it's just to get all the stuff to us that we use every day without all lose emission. some big questions still need to answering how much cheaper and smaller can batteries get. how fast can they be charged, and will there ever be enough green hydrogen? it looks like pure electric trucks are way ahead of hydrogen and the rates of deliver or future goods. but they're both bring us closer to the same finish line to reach our climate targets. but there could still be some surprises along the way . and onto the next bill bill of the revolution we've all been there before, stuck in traffic, many of us waste a lot of our precious time and traffic jams for the average driver in the united kingdom. so whopping 8 months throughout a lifetime. but what if that could be a thing of the past?

what if we could speed for the sky instead of sneaking through the street and wonder if we could be sustainable while doing so with flying taxes? what sounds like a dream might just become reality. a no need for a futuristic date range. these electric air caps will start operating in new york city in 2025, joby aviation, and collaboration with delta airlines. justin built in electric air taxi. takes off and lands vertically. now transitions wise on the wing, it seats a pilot and 4 passengers. and slides that speeds it up to 200 miles an hour. the company's game changing. promise a 7 minute flight from manhattan to chance kate, for the price of a regular taxi, a trip. it usually takes 30 to 60 minutes. new york city mirror, eric adams wants to establish the world's 1st electric heliport hub in manhattan. it could push a quieter emissions, free urban mobility, the

we've been talking a lot about mobility, but of course that's not the only sector where change was happening. agriculture accounts for about one 3rd of all c o 2 emissions around the world. so it's a mass of contributor to climate change, but it's also one of the sectors that fuel the negative effect from a warming planet the most in spain, for example, farmers are struggling with major water shortages. now, one region that has found an unconventional work around more plastic the heat and drought, spain's agriculture was once again, left high and dry this year. but this is also spain. it really rains here, but there is water and even plenty of tomatoes. why is that? in the field trip and the relatively dry conditions that we have in spain,

especially on the mediterranean. i think it's quite advantageous to grow through doing greenhouses. if you're, she'll go through all of them in other. oh dear, how awful? the classic reaction when it comes to the vast plastic landscapes of hell, maria. well, oranges, olives, and greens, dried up elsewhere, vegetables for europe ro here almost all year round. this region has always been dry, which is why farmers together with the engineers make the best of what little water they do have, including with the help of sensors and software. so the. busy maybe i guess what we achieve here in the greenhouse is, is a 20 to 30 percent water savings. 20 percent less growth, eliza and 30 percent less electricity. oh, doubt. all that then if you're technology helps farmers on the whole region to be more sustainable, you gotta go america a sandwich on my. so things in the greenhouse is farmers do everything they can to save water. this tomato grower, for example, doesn't use sensors or even soil. instead he puts the plants into

a substrate at them all. and now this way, we save 20 percent of the water that we would otherwise have wasted plus the fertilizer that's and now they do it. first of the sunset could be any that's a big savings and which i would okay. cafe to the irrigated greenhouse. this is an idea from the 19 sixty's franco dictatorship in a region where hardly anything grew. thousands of families tried their luck on a single hector of land is done, his little painted or his parents were among them. together with his wife on par. oh, he still runs his small family distance. green peppers are currently in demand. see, see that i'll probably be meeting with you and we, it's a pretty good living. i'm the all the greenhouse is of improve the lives of atl, 90 percent of all marines and the a that i ended up getting ready prosperity and less water consumption to good

reasons for the greenhouse is. but so far, farmers have been growing more or less the same things. field vegetables such as medicine, broccoli have yet to thrive under cover. but there's one exception. this firm, which grows punctually under plastic, highly automated, with a closed water cycle. it seems 50 percent on water and fertilizer compared to growing the vegetables out doors little then i'm off to a full full head. we have 3.2 heck to so yeah. if possible, and we have 9 harvest bases, but yeah, i mean, in the field they managed 2 or 3 phases on the same area. i go by this greenhouse is efficiency regardless of which bench the bolt is being grown, is crucial. say by that most me still going im, video based at the building. the greenhouse is costs around a $150000.00 euros, but heck to not a whole bunch to both sides. can recruit those costs to ship where they cost the

auto store skill. there are attempts to grow larger crumbs under plastic, such as these battalions and these appliances for scientists. this is just the start that you're getting been a little and i think the better control of claremont, the conditions on those tests will ensure a better production on quality. that's why i believe that more profit will be made and therefore higher profit debility, even if you feel the for the new one. scarce commodity is crucial for success under plastic water. even if you need less than you would growing food in a field, still growing more than $32000.00 heck, there is one of the vegetables requires a lot of water. in this case, it comes from a seawater desalination plant, which has to work 24 hours a day. out of the meanwhile, the other we see a lot of development and production in the region would be unthinkable without. and this planned work. it because the ground water at the pharmacy used to use

a salty hand, and i want to ask how many fellow by expanding wind and solar power in spain, more and more sea water may be the celebrated affordably an sustainably in the future. but that only works on the coast. if water prices rise overall, greenhouses will also become more interesting outside of the maria region. what are you? good, okay, and i think this model could do better. it's almost everywhere around the mediterranean for many to find new. maria is a model both for spain and for farmers and other countries to counteract the drought countering changes with new technology, whether an agriculture or mobility. that's it from us. we hope this episode, fuels your appetite for the future. thanks for watching. take care. the,
