Discover the programme
The Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) for Transport helps build new or upgrade existing transport infrastructure across Europe. It focuses on cross-border projects and projects aiming at removing bottlenecks or bridging missing links.
CEF Transport also supports traffic management systems, innovation, reducing the environmental impact, enhancing energy efficiency and increasing safety of transport. High-power electricity recharging stations and hydrogen refuelling stations are being deployed through the alternative fuels infrastructure facility. Military mobility projects upgrade key transport infrastructure to make it fit for both civilian and defence purposes.
Through EU funded projects, CEF transport contributes to the completion of the core network and comprehensive network, which are policy objectives of the trans-European transport network (TEN-T).

With this selection, the AFIF will support approximately 2,500 electric recharging points for light-duty vehicles and 2,400 for heavy-duty vehicles along the European TEN-T road network, 35 hydrogen refuelling stations for vehicles, and more.

CINEA received 258 applications requesting over €9.5 billion in co-funding from the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) Transport by the call deadline of 21 January 2025. It is nearly four times more than the €2.5 billion budget available for the 2024 CEF Transport calls for proposals.

Europe’s air traffic management (ATM) is composed of country-based systems and processes – a fragmentation that resulted in a lack of interoperability and more costly air navigation services.
Working to overcome these challenges is COOPANS, a partnership between air navigation service providers.

The initiatives bring together 50 stakeholders from across Europe (including air navigation service providers, airlines, airports, EUROCONTROL Network Manager), represent a significant advancement to enhance the efficiency, digitisation and sustainability of of Air Traffic Management in the EU.
