(3) Regulation (EU) 2019/631 of the European Parliament and of the Council46 and Regulation (EU) 2019/1242 of the European Parliament and of the Council47 already set CO2 emission performance standards for new passenger cars and for new light commercial vehicles as well as for certain heavy-duty vehicles. Those instruments should accelerate the uptake in particular of zero-emission vehicles and alternative fuels and thereby create demand for recharging and refuelling infrastructure. _________________ 46 Regulation (EU) 2019/631 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 setting CO2 emission performance standards for new passenger cars and for new light commercial vehicles, and repealing Regulations (EC) No 443/2009 and (EU) No 510/2011 (OJ L 111, 25.4.2019, p. 13). 47 Regulation (EU) 2019/1242 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2019 setting CO2 emission performance standards for new heavy-duty vehicles and amending Regulations (EC) No 595/2009 and (EU) 2018/956 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Directive 96/53/EC (OJ L 198, 25.7.2019, p. 202).

(5) Therefore aAll modes of transport should be addressed in one instrument which should take into account athe variety of alternative fuels, the development of their market share and particularly their affordability. The use of zero-emission powertrain technologies and climate-neutral alternative fuels is at different stages of maturity in the different modes of transport and in the different Member States and regions. In particular, in the road sector, a rapid uptake of battery-electric and plug-in hybrid personal and light-duty commercial vehicles is taking place. Hydrogen fuel-cell road vehicles are available to markets, as well, however at high prices for vehicles and fuels. In addition, smaller hydrogen and battery electric vessels and hydrogen fuel-cell trains are currently being deployed in different projects and in first commercial operations, with full commercial roll out expected in the next years. In contrast, the aviation and waterborne sectors, as well as heavy-duty road transport, continue to be dependent on liquid and gaseous fuels, as zero- and low-emission powertrain solutions are expected to enter the market only around 2030 and in particular for the aviation sector even later, with full commercialisation taking its time. The use of fossil gaseous or liquid fuels is only possible if it is clearly embedded into a clear decarbonisation pathway that is in line with the long-term objective of climate neutrality in the Union, requiring increasing blending with or replacement by renewable fuels such as bio-methane, advanced biofuelsgaseous or liquid bio-methane, biomass fuels, biofuels, advanced biofuels, recycled carbonfuels, renewable fuels of non-biological origin or renewable and low- carbon synthetic gaseous and liquid fuels.

(5 a) Therefore, the general principle of technological neutrality should be maintained and market competition between the different alternative technologies should be promoted and protected at Union and national levels, thus providing for the best technological solutions and affordable prices. Targets and milestones should be set at Union and national levels, depending on the market development of different technologies, while the net-zero ambition should always be the guiding principle.

(6) SuchBiofuels, advanced biofuels and synthetic fuels, substituting diesel, petrol and jet fuel, can be produced from different feedstock and can be blended into fossil fuels at very high blending ratios. They can be technically used with the current vehicle technology with minor or no adaptations. Renewable and bio-LNG can be used for heavy-duty transport, both road and maritime, as demonstrated by the fact that already 20% of gas used in road transport is bio-methane. Renewable methanol can also be used for inland navigation and short-sea shipping. Synthetic and paraffinic fuels have a potential to reduce the use of fossil fuel sources in the energy supply to transport. All of these fuels can be distributed, stored and used with the existing infrastructure or where necessary with infrastructure of the same kind.

(7) LNG is likely to play a continued role in maritime transport, where there is currently no economically viable zero- emission powertrain technology available. The Communication on the Smart and Sustainable Mobility Strategy points to zero-emission seagoing ships becoming market ready by 2030. Fleet conversion, a tendency, which should be promoted, duly monitored and reported. Fleet conversion, based on relevant, affordable and viable new technologies, should take place gradually due to the long lifetime of the ships. Contrary to maritime transport, fFor inland waterways, with normally smaller vessels and shorter distances, low- and zero-emission powertrain technologies, such as hydrogen and, electricity, sh and other alternative fuels, could enter the markets more quickly. LNG is, LPG and their renewable derivatives are, however expected to no longer play a significant role in that sectorand the competitive development of the market in this sector is still ongoing. Transport fuels such as LNG need increasingly to be decarbonised by blending/substituting with liquefied biomethane (bio-LNG) or renewable and low-carbon synthetic gaseous e-fuels (e- gas) for instance. Those decarbonised fuels can be used in the same infrastructure as gaseous fossil fuels thereby allowing for a gradual shift towards decarbonised fuels.

(8) In the heavy-duty road transport sector, LNG trucks are fully mature and can run on a high blend of bio-LNG. On the one hand, the common scenarios underpinning the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy and the Climate Target Plan as well as the revised “Fit for 55” modelling scenarios suggest some limited role of gaseous fuels that will increasingly be decarbonised in heavy-duty road transport especially in the long haul segment. Furthermore, LPG and CNG vehicles for which already a sufficientsome infrastructure network exists across the Union are expected to gradually be replaced by zero emission drivetrains and therefore only a limitedclimate-neutral alternative fuels, despite this not being an existing market tendency yet. Therefore a targeted policy for LNG infrastructure deployment that can equally supply decarbonised fuels is considered necessary to close remaining gaps in the main networks. As the market for decarbonised heavy-duty vehicles is still developing, a variety of alternative technologies should be incentivised, including via infrastructure planning and adaptation, while taking into account market shares and traffic data.

Recital 9
(9) The deployment of publicly accessible recharging infrastructure for light-duty electric vehicles has been uneven across the Union. Continued uneven distribution would jeopardize the uptake of such vehicles, limiting connectivity across the Union. Continuing divergence in policy ambitions and approaches at national level will not create the long-term certainty needed for substantive market investment. Mandatory minimum targets for Member States at national level should therefore provide policy orientations and complement National Policy Frameworks. That approach should combine national fleet based targets with distance-based targets for the trans-European network for transport (TEN-T). National fleet based targets should ensure that vehicle uptake in each Member State is matched with the deployment of sufficient publicly accessible recharging infrastructure. A special attention and higher fleet based targets for centres of relatively higher population density and higher electric vehicles market-share is also needed. Distance-based targets for the TEN-T network should ensure full coverage of electric recharging points along the Union’s main road networks and thereby ensure easy and seamless travel throughout the Union.
Amendment 189 #

Recital 10
Recital 10
(10) National fleet based targets should be established on the basis of the total number of registered electric vehicles in that Member State following a common methodology that accounts for technological developments such as the increased driving range of electric vehicles or the increasing market penetration of fast-charging points which can recharge a greater number of vehicles per recharging point than at a normal recharging point. The methodology also has to take into account the different recharging patterns of battery electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles, as well as population and market shares of electric vehicles. A methodology that norms national fleet based targets on the total maximum power output of the publicly accessible recharging infrastructure should allow flexibility for the implementation of different recharging technologies in Member States.
Amendment 196 #

Recital 11
Recital 11
(11) Implementation in Member States should ensure that a sufficient number of publicly accessible recharging points is installed, in particular at public transport stations, such as port passenger terminals, airports or railway stations. A sufficient number of publicly accessible fast recharging points dedicated to light-duty vehicles should also be deployed to increase consumer convenience in particular across the TEN-T network, the main roads and in urban areas, to ensure full cross-border connectivity and allow electric vehicles to circulate throughout the Union.
Amendment 197 #

Recital 11 a (new)
(11 a) Member States' implementation should take into consideration the fact that demand for a suitable number of charging stations might change throughout the year in some areas of their territory, mainly outside of major metropolitan centres, as it does in many tourist locations. In these cases, the possibility of deploying a temporary mobile off-grid charging infrastructure would aid those territories in meeting seasonal demand without requiring the installation of fixed infrastructure that would be ineffective at other times of the year and would have negative environmental consequences.

(11 a) The deployment of publicly accessible recharging infrastructure should primarily result from private market investment. However, Member States should support infrastructure deployment through initial public investments, in cases where market conditions require public support, provided it is in full compliance with State aid rules, until a competitive market has been established.

Recital 13
(13) Electric heavy-duty vehicles need a distinctively different recharging infrastructure than light-duty vehicles. Public accessible infrastructure for electric heavy-duty vehicles is however currently almost nowhere available in the Union. A combined approach of distance-based targets along the TEN-T network, targets for overnight recharging infrastructure and targets at urban nodes should ensure that a sufficient publicly accessible infrastructure coverage for electric heavy-duty vehicles is established throughout the Union to support the expected market uptakeproactively support the market share development of battery electric heavy-duty vehicles.

Recital 14
(14) A sufficient number of publicly accessible fast recharging points dedicated to heavy-duty vehicles should also be deployed along the TEN-T network to ensure full connectivity throughout the Union. That infrastructure should have sufficient power output to allow the recharge of the vehicle within the driver’s legal break time. In addition to fast recharging points along the network, heavy-duty vehicles should also be able to use publicly accessible recharging infrastructure for overnight recharging along the main transport network to specifically support the electrification of the long haul sector.

(17) Publicly accessible recharging or refuelling points include, for example, privately owned recharging or refuelling points accessible to the public that are located on public or private properties, such as public parkings or parkings of supermarkets. A recharging or refuelling point located on a private property that is accessible to the general public should be considered as publicly accessible also in cases where access is restricted to a certain general group of users, for example to clientsif the access is unlimited and unconditional. Recharging or refuelling points for car- sharing schemes should only be considered accessible to the public if they explicitly allow access for third party users. Recharging or refuelling points located on private properties, access to which is restricted to a limited, determinate circle of persons, such as parking lots in office buildings to which only employees or authorised persons have access, should not be considered as publicly accessible recharging or refuelling points.
Amendment 222 #

Recital 21
Recital 21
(21) The increasing number of electric vehicles in road, rail, maritime and other transport modes will require that recharging operations are optimised and managed in a way that does not cause congestion and takes full advantage of the availability of renewable electricity and low electricity prices in the system. Smart recharging points as well as off-grid recharging points, in particular, can facilitate the integration of electric vehicles into the electricity system furtherand reduce the impact of electric vehicles on the electricity distribution network, as it enables demand response through aggregation and through price based demand response. System integration can further be facilitated through bi-directional recharging (vehicle-to-grid). All normal recharging points at which vehicles are typically parked for a longer period should therefore support smart recharging.

Recital 22
(22) The development of on-grid and off-grid infrastructure for electric vehicles, the interaction of that infrastructure with the electricity system, and the rights and responsibilities assigned to the different actors in the electric mobility market, have to be consistent with the principles established under Directive (EU) 2019/944. In that sense, distribution system operators should cooperate on a non-discriminatory basis with any person establishing or operating publicly accessible recharging points and Member States should ensure that the electricity supply for a recharging point can be the subject of a contract with a supplier other than the entity supplying electricity to the household or premises where this recharging point is located. The access of Union electricity suppliers to recharging points should be without prejudice to the derogations under Article 66 of Directive (EU) 2019/944.
Amendment 235 #

Recital 23
Recital 23
(23) The establishment and operation of recharging points for electric vehicles should be developed as a competitive market with open access to all parties interested in rolling-out or operating recharging infrastructures, on-grid and off- grid. In view of the limited alternative locations on highways, existing highway concessions such as for conventional refuelling stations or rest areas are a particular cause for concern, since they can run over very long periods and sometimes even lack a specified end date altogether. Member States should seek, to the extent possible and in compliance with Directive (EU) 2014/23 of the European Parliament and of the Council53 , to competitively award new concessions specifically for recharging stations on or adjacent to existing highway rest areas in order to limit deployment cost and enable new market entrants. _________________ 53 Directive 2014/23/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February 2014 on the award of concession contracts (OJ L 94, 28.3.2014, p. 1).

(28) At the early stage of market deployment there is still a degree of uncertainty with regard to the kind of vehicles that will come into the market and to the kind of technologies that are going to be widely used. As outlined in the Commission’s communication ‘A hydrogen strategy for a climate-neutral Europe’56 the heavy-duty segment was identified as the most likely segment for the early mass deployment of hydrogen vehicles. Therefore, hydrogen refuelling infrastructure should preliminarily focus on that segment while also allowing light-duty vehicles to fuel at publicly accessible hydrogen refuelling stations. To ensure interoperability, all publicly accessible hydrogen stations should at least serve gaseous hydrogen at 700 bar. The infrastructure roll out should also take into account the emergence of new technologies, such as liquid hydrogen, that allow a larger range for heavy-duty vehicles and are the preferred technology choice of some vehicle manufacturers. To that end, a minimum number of hydrogen refuelling stations should serve also liquid hydrogen in addition to gaseous hydrogen at 700 bar. _________________ 56 COM(2020) 301 final

(29) A number of LNG refuelling points are established in the Union, already providing a backbone for the circulation of LNG driven heavy-duty vehicles. The TEN-T core network should remain the basis for the deployment of LNG infrastructure, and progressively for bio- LNG, as it covers the main traffic flows and allows cross border connectivity throughout the Union. It had been recommended in Directive 2014/94/EU that such refuelling points be installed every 400 km on the TEN-T core network, but certain limited should remain the basis for the deployment of LNG infrastructure, and progressively for bio-LNG, as it covers the main traffic flows and allows cross border connectivity throughout the Union. It had been recommended in Directive 2014/94/EU that such refuelling points be installed every 400 km on the TEN-T core network, but some important gaps in the network remain across the EU to reach that objective. Member States should by 2025 reach that objective and fill the remaining gaps, after which the target should cease to applyLNG stations are insufficient especially in Eastern Europe and in third countries, situated on international transport corridors, including corridors linking different Member States. Member States should by 2025 reach that objective and fill the remaining gaps, after which the target should be adapted to different market scenarios in line with EU and national decarbonisation targets and market shares of alternative fuels.

(32) Shore-side electricity facilities, either fixed or mobile, can serve maritime and inland waterway transport as clean power supply and contribute to reducing the environmental impact of seagoing ships and inland waterway vessels. Under the FuelEU maritime initiative, ship operators of container and passenger ships need to comply with provisions to reduce emissions at berth. Mandatory deployment targets should ensure that the sector finds sufficient shore-side electricity supply in TEN-T core and comprehensive maritime ports to comply with those requirements. The application of these targets to all TEN- T maritime ports should ensure the level playing field between ports.

Recital 40
(40) In order to promote alternative fuels and develop the relevant infrastructure, the national policy frameworks should consist of detailed strategies to promote alternative fuels in sectors that are difficult to decarbonise such as aviation, maritime transport, inland waterway transport as well as rail transport on network segments that cannot be electrified. In particular, Member States should develop clear strategies for the decarbonisation of inland waterway transport along the TEN-T network in close cooperation with those Member States concerned. Long term decarbonisation strategies should also be developed for TEN-T ports and TEN-T airports, in particular with a focus on the deployment of infrastructure for low and zero emission vessels and aircraft as well as for railway lines that are not going to be electrified. On the basis of those strategies, taking into consideration the national market and traffic share data and market projections, the Commission should review this Regulation with a view to setting more mandatory targets for those sectors.
