Beschreibung
The project involves the subscription of Green Bonds to co-finance eligible investments in sustainable mobility, as promoted by Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane under its Green Bond Framework.
Ziele
The objective is to enhance the quality, availability, and reliability of rail services in Italy, leading to savings in time and vehicle operating costs, a reduction in infrastructure maintenance expenses, and an improvement in railway safety. The project aims to promote a modal shift from road to rail, providing environmental and road safety benefits while contributing to the advancement of sustainable transport in alignment with EU objectives. The proceeds under the green bond framework focus on electric railway infrastructure and rolling stock, therefore they are in line with the criteria for substantial contribution to tackle Climate Mitigation under the EU Taxonomy. Consequently, the project supports Climate Action and Environmental Sustainability (CA&ES) objectives outlined in the Climate Bank Roadmap. Some project components are expected to be located along lines within the Trans-European Network (TEN-T), while others will be located in less developed or transition regions, thereby supporting cohesion objectives.
