CAF creates urban mobility solutions using trains and buses. The European Investment Bank (EIB) has signed an agreement with Compañía Auxiliar de Ferrocarriles (CAF) to provide an €80m ($93.6m) loan to finance a research, development and innovation (RD&I) programme focused on mobility technologies. The loan will allow CAF to fund digitalisation, autonomous mobility solutions and improved energy efficiency for its trains and buses. The financing forms part of the EIB Group 2024-2027 Strategic Roadmap, which supports technological innovation, cohesion and environmental sustainability. In the UK, CAF renewed its partnership with Northern Trains and Eversholt Rail to maintain Northern’s rolling stock fleet.
