Specific targets translate to more accountability
Our A-list rating reaffirms that traveling by rail is a proactive way to protect the climate. Deutsche Bahn’s target is to achieve climate neutrality by 2050. To achieve this goal, the Group has set ambitious intermediate targets. By 2030, DB will cut its CO2e emissions by more than half compared to 2006 levels and increase the share of renewable energy in its traction current mix to 80%. By 2038, all the Group’s traction current will have been transitioned to 100% renewable energy. These goals are an integral part of DB’s Green Transformation, as reflected in our Group-wide Strong Rail strategy.
