    Yes, although very slowly.

    A mere 15% of new EU sold cars are BEVs, the average age of the fleet is 12 years, and electric heavy vehicles are still almost non-existent.

    Meanwhile, central & southern Europe are still running on Fossil Gas despite heatpumps being around for ~50 years by now. The key issue is that the price of electricity has been far too high, and getting even higher in recent years.
