(19d) The Member States and the Commission should focus on the promotion of hydrogen as the fuel of the future. Hydrogen is a clean way of powering vehicles, and its use should contribute to the creation of a pollution- free economy, as vehicles propelled by hydrogen produce neither carbon-based pollutants nor emissions of green-house gases from the exhaust pipe.

Proposal for a directive
Article 1
Article 1
This Directive requires the inclusion of operational lifetime costs of energy consumption, CO2 emissions, and pollutant emissions as award criteria in the procurement of road transport vehicles, by contracting authorities orand contracting entities within the meaning of Directives 2004/17/EC and 2004/18/EC or, as criteria for the purchase of such vehicles bywell as certain operators under contract, licencse, permit or authorisation granted by public authorities, in orderto take account, on a mandatory basis, of the operational lifetime costs of energy consumption, CO2 emissions and pollutant emissions when procuring road transport vehicles, so as to promote clean and energy efficient vehicles.

Article 3 – paragraph 1
Article 3 – paragraph 1
1. For the purposes of this Directive, operational lifetime costs for energy consumption, CO2 emissions, and pollutant emissions linked to the operation of the vehicles under procurement shall be monetised and calculated following the methodology set out in points (a), (b) and (c). (a) The lifetime cost of the energy consumption for the operation of a vehicle shall be calculated using the following methodology: – the fuel consumption per kilometre of a vehicle according to paragraph 2 of his Article shall be converted into energy consumption per kilometre, using the conversion factors of Table 1 in the Annex for the energy content of the different fuels; – a single monetary value per unit of energy shall be used. This single value shall be the lower of the cost per unit of energy of petrol or diesel before tax when used as a transport fuel; – lifetime cost of the energy consumption for the operation of a vehicle shall be calculated by multiplying the lifetime mileage according to paragraph 3 by the energy consumption per kilometre according to the first indent of this paragraph, and by the cost per unit of energy according to the second indent of this paragraph. (b) The lifetime cost for the CO2 emissions of the operation of a vehicle shall be calculated by multiplying the lifetime mileage according to paragraph 3 by the CO2 emissions in kilograms per kilometre according to paragraph 2, and by the cost per kilogram taken from Table 2 in the Annex. (c) The lifetime cost for the pollutant emissions of the operation of a vehicle shall be calculated by adding up the lifetime costs for emissions of oxides of nitrogen, non-methane hydrocarbons, and particulate matter. The lifetime cost for each pollutant shall be calculated by multiplying the lifetime mileage according to paragraph 3 by the emissions in grams per kilometre according to paragraph 2, and by the respective cost per gram taken from Table 2 in the AnnexMember States shall ensure that, no later than the date referred to in Article 7(1), all contracting authorities, entities, and operators referred to in Article 2, when procuring road transport vehicles, take account, on a mandatory basis, of the operational lifetime energy and environmental impacts referred to in paragraph 1a and apply one of the options set out in paragraph 1b.

1a. The energy and environmental impacts to be considered shall include at least the following: a) energy consumption; b) CO2 emissions; c) emissions of pollutants, as defined in the Annex. In addition to the energy and environmental impacts referred to in the first subparagraph, contracting authorities, contracting entities and operators shall also consider including other environmental impacts linked to the operation of the vehicles under procurement, where appropriate.
