(3) The European Strategy for Low- Emission Mobility16 sets a clear ambition: by mid-century, greenhouse gas emissions from transport will need to be at least 60% lower than in 1990 and be firmly on the path towards zero. EIt is useful to reduce emissions of air pollutants from transport that harm our health need to be drastically reduced without delay. Emissions from conventional combustion engines will need toshould be further reduced after 2020. Zero- emission vehicles – including electric vehicles, up to 80% of the energy for which in the EU comes from non- renewable sources (nuclear, coal, etc.) – and low -emission vehicles will need to be deployed and gain significant market share by 2030. _________________ 16 Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions A European Strategy for Low-Emission Mobility (COM(2016) 501 final).

(4) The Commission’s Communications "Europe on the move"17 and "Delivering on the European Strategy for low-emission mobility A European Union that protects the planet, empowers its consumers, and defends its industry and workers"18 highlight that the CO2 emissions standards for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles are a strong driver for innovation and efficiency and will contribute to strengthening competitiveness of the automotive industry and pave the way for zero and low- emission vehicles in a technology-neutral way, without, however, giving sufficient consideration to the problem of a lack of capacity to deal with the increasing quantity of waste from these vehicles (particularly batteries). _________________ 17 Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions EUROPE ON THE MOVE An agenda for a socially fair transition towards clean, competitive and connected mobility for all (COM(2017)0283 final). 18 Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions […]

(6) The European Council Conclusions of October 2014 endorsed a greenhouse gas emissions reduction of 30% by 2030 compared to 2005 for the sectors that are not part of the European Union emissions trading system. Road transport provides a major contribution to the emissions of those sectors, and its emissions remain significantly above 1990 levels. If the road transport emissions increase further, in particular as a result of the EU’s desired policy of increasing trade between the Member States at the expense of energy- efficient local consumption, it will offset reductions made by other sectors to combat climate change.
