Recital 5
(5) The CARS 21 High Level Group report of 6 June 2012 states that the lack of a Union-wide harmonised alternative fuel infrastructure hampers the market introduction of vehicles using alternative fuels and delays their environmental benefits. The Commission Communication on a CARS 2020 Action Plan for the automotive industry in Europe takes up the main recommendations of CARS 21 High Level Group report and presents an Action Plan based on them.

Amendment 26 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 9
(9) Biofuels are fuels produced from biomass, as defined in the Directive 2009/28/EC. Biofuels are currently the most important type of alternative fuels, accounting for 4.4% in EU transport. They can contribute to a substantial reduction in overall CO2 emissions, if they are produced sustainably and do not cause indirect lands use change. They could provide clean power to all modes of transport. However, supply constraints and sustainability considerations may limit their use.

Amendment 29 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 11
(11) Electricity is a clean fuel particularly attractive for deployment of electric vehicles and electric two-wheelers in urban agglomerations which can contribute to improving air quality and reducing noise. Member States should ensure thatThe installation of recharging points for electric vehicles are built up with sufficient coverage, at least twice the number of vehicles, and 10% of them publicly accessible, focusing in particular on urban agglomerations. Private owners of electric vehicles depend to a large extent on access to recharging points in collective parking lots, such as in appartment blocks, office and business locations. Regulatory provisions should be set up by public authorities, assisting citizens by ensuring that the appropriate infrastructure with sufficient electric vehicle recharging points is provided by the site developers and managersfalls within the sphere of Member States’ national policy. 1 __________________ 1 In accordance with the subsidiarity principle set out in Article 5 TEU.
