(12) The updated New Industrial Strategy26 foresees the co-creation of green and digital transition pathways in partnership with industry, public authorities, social partners and other stakeholders. In this context, a transition pathway should be developed for the mobility ecosystem to accompany the transition of the automotive value chain. The pathway should take particular heed of SMEs in the automotive supply chain, of the consultation of social partners including by Member States, and also build on the European Skills Agenda with initiatives like the Pact for Skills to mobilise the private sector and other stakeholders to up-skill and re-skill Europe’s workforce in view of the green and digital transitions. The appropriate actions and incentives at European and national level to boost the affordability of zero emission vehicles should also be addressed in the pathway. The progress made on this comprehensive transition pathway for the mobility ecosystem should be monitored every two years as part of a progress report to be submitted by the Commission, looking inter alia at the progress in the deployment of zero- emission vehicles, their price developments, deployment of alternative fuels development and infrastructure roll- out as required under the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation, the potential of innovative technologies to reach climate neutral mobility, international competitiveness, investments in the automotive value chain, up-skilling and re- skilling of workers and reconversion of activities. The progress report should further take into account whether the security of the electricity supply can be safeguarded, considering the increased demand for electricity in light of continued decarbonisation. The progress report will also build on the two-year progress reports that Member States submit under the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation. The Commission should consult social partners in the preparation of the progress report, including the results in the social dialogue. Innovations in the automotive supply chain are continuing. Innovative technologies such as the production of electro-fuels with air capture, if further developed, could offer prospects for affordable climate neutral mobility. The Commission should therefore keep track of progress in the state of innovation in the sector as part of its progress report. _________________ 26 Commission Communication - Updating the 2020 New Industrial Strategy: Building a stronger Single Market for Europe’s recovery, COM(2021) 350 final of 5 May 2021

Recital 13 a (new)
Recital 13 a (new)
(13a) Considering that the emission reduction targets mandated by this regulation are only achievable if the relevant infrastructure for the use of alternative fuels is in place, it is acknowledged that mandatory reduction targets for manufacturers are contingent upon the relevant Member State’s successful deployment of alternative fuel infrastructure.

Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 9
Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 9
Regulation (EU) 2019/631
Article 14a – paragraph 2 a (new)
Article 14a – paragraph 2 a (new)
As a part of the Commission’s duty under this Article to report, the Commission shall verify whether Member States have met their targets for the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure, as set out in[alternative fuels infrastructure Regulation 2021]. Where the Commission finds that a Member State has failed to meet its targets under the [alternative fuels infrastructure Regulation 2021] for the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure, the Commission shall, with respect to the specific Member State, adjust the targets set out in Article 1 (5) (a) + (b) for the duration of one year. When adjusting the targets, the Commission must take account of the challenges faced by manufacturers and the feasibility of reaching the target in light of the lack of infrastructure.
