This chapter introduces the spatial necessity to raise the renewable energy source (RES) contribution, especially in the context of major transport infrastructure (MTI) planning. Thus, an overview on the development of RES in the European transport sector is presented along with an evaluation of RES contributions, such as biofuels and the rise of electro-mobility, herein both traditional and new e-mobility vehicles. Thus, the spatial interconnection between the production potential for biofuels and renewable electricity and their consumers is discussed. A “steering matrix” is drafted to show strategies and possibilities (on different spatial levels and by different approaches) to raise RES shares in the transport sector. The chapter argues on the necessary policy changes, possible modalities and spatial level of applicability, concluding with recommendations for stronger links between RES policies and MTI planning.
