ENVE works in fields related to the European Green Deal, which include the environment biodiversity, circular economy, zero pollution, climate change, energy, and space policies.
In 2016, Alstom unveiled the world's first hydrogen-powered passenger train, built at its plant in Salzgitter. In a pilot project run by the transport companies Landesnahverkehrsgesellschaft Niedersachsen mbH (LNVG) and EVB Eisenbahnen und Verkehrsbetrieb Elbe-Weser, a successful trial has been carried out since 2018 involving two regular passenger trains on the Cuxhaven-Bremerhaven-Bremervörde-Buxtehude line.
In early 2022, a further 14 vehicles are due to be deployed. A hydrogen refuelling station is currently under construction in Bremervörde.
