Directorate for Energy, Transport & Climate
The directorate on energy, transport and climate supports EU policies and technology innovation to ensure safe, efficient and sustainable energy and transport in Europe.
We serve as the Commission's focal point for independent, dependable scientific and technical evidence on energy, transportation, and climate policies in the EU's transition to a carbon-neutral society.
We are known for our foresight, solid expertise, and ability to propose and carry out interdisciplinary research that supports the policy cycle.
