Article 3 – paragraph 1
1. The Programme has the general objective to develop and modernise the trans-European networks in the fields of transport, energy and digital and to facilitate cross-border cooperation in the field of renewable energy, taking into account the long-term decarbonisation commitments and with emphasis on synergies among sectors. The Programme supports especially infrastructure projects that contribute to minimising external costs in the fields of safety, the environmental and climate.

Recital 1 a (new)
(1a) Priority should be given in the transport sector to projects which create or improve cross-border connections, complete missing links and eliminate bottlenecks. In this scenario Connecting Europe Facility can make a concrete contribution to the ambition of achieving a single European transport area.

Recital 1 d (new)
(1d) An updated Connecting Europe Facility which covers all modes of transport, including road infrastructure and inland waterways, focusing on interconnections and the completion of networks in peripheral areas and covering all transport needs, including digital solutions, modal shift and more sustainable transport, is necessary. This updated Connecting Europe Facility should also prioritise more direct linkages between the core and comprehensive networks, including, for example, horizontal priorities such as Motorways of the Sea.

Recital 6
Recital 6
(6) An important objective of this Programme is to deliver increased synergies between the transport, energy and digital sector. For that purpose, the Programme should provide for the adoption of cross-sectoral work programmes that could address specific intervention areas, for instance as regards connected and automated mobility or alternative fuelsfilling the gaps in alternative fuels infrastructure throughout the European Union as there is a strong need to increase the uptake of alternative fuels and create a stable environment for investment.. In addition, the Programme should allow, within each sector, the possibility to consider eligible some ancillary components pertaining to another sector, where such an approach improves the socio-economic benefit of the investment. Synergies between sectors should be incentivized through the award criteria for the selection of actions.

Recital 11
Recital 11
(11) The TEN-T guidelines require, with regard to new technologies and innovation, that the TEN-T enables the decarbonisation of all transport modes by stimulating energy efficiency as well as the use of alternative fuels. Directive 2014/94/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council21 establishes a common framework of measures for the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure in the Union in order to minimise dependence on oil and to mitigate the environmental impact of transport and requires Member States to ensure that recharging or refuelling points accessible to the public are made available by 31 December 2025. As outlined in the Commission proposals22 of November 2017, a comprehensive set of measures to promote low-emission mobility is necessary including financial support where the market conditions do not provide a sufficient incentive. Furthermore, the current system of National Framework Plans (NFPs) could be improved by more efficient instruments including concrete, binding and enforceable targets. __________________ 21 Directive 2014/94/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 October 2014 on the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure (OJ L 307, 28.10.2014, p. 1). 22 Commission Communication "Delivering on low-emission mobility A European Union that protects the planet, empowers its consumers and defends its industry and workers" – COM(2017) 675
