Amendment 12 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 3
Paragraph 3
3. Believes that more efficient, coherent and targeted use of R&I in transport policy is key in order to respond to new realities, breaking away from conventional thinking and focusing on pioneering ideas; in order to provide users with innovative transport solutions that meet the needs and fulfil the requirements of availability, profitability, credibility, quality and continuity;
Amendment 17 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 4
Paragraph 4
4. Stresses that Union policies should be neutral with regard to alternative technologies ('technology neutrality'), with priorities and funding being decided on the basis of results over the entire life-cycle of specific fields, and that harmonisation efforts must not be an obstacle to the development of innovative or alternative solutions in the field of transport, the diversity of the energy mix and deployment of smart communication technologies;
Amendment 28 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 7
Paragraph 7
7. Believes that R&I in the area of sustainable mobility should be based on the principle of integration, in particular through the abolition of trans-border missing links (interconnections), increased compatibility between and within the systems (interoperability) and a shift to more sustainable modes, such as rail and sustainable waterborne transportthe promotion of the most appropriate mode for a given route (intermodality) ;
Amendment 44 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 11
Paragraph 11
11. Confirms that efforts to achieve cleaner power for transport and mobility technologies should be linked to more efficient concepts involving less volume and weight, as well as better vehicle design; underlines the potential of innovative energy savings through better use of wind, waves, sun, gravitation and regenand taking advantage of the opportunities offered by renewables and the use of alternative forceuels;
Amendment 56 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 12
Paragraph 12
12. Strongly supports R&I in the area of individual mobility, for example walking, cycling and other mobility tools whose average weight and volume is significantly less than that of the transported body/objectwhile promoting a differentiated approach, taking into account the needs and specificities of urban, peri-urban, interurban and rural areas;
