Charges for emissions
Policies that levy charge/fees on emissions are included in this such as carbon tax. Charges can be applied to target specific emission source such as passenger and freight transport vehicles of more than 3.5 tonnes gross weight, aiming at a shift of transalpine transport from road to rail. The level of the charge depends on the distance driven, the maximum weight, and emission standards of the individual vehicle.
