(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. Furthermore, following proper assessment, the Commission and Member States should consider supporting the deployment of hydrogen infrastructure also for other modes of transport, such as for airports and rail connections. _________________ 56 COM(2020) 301 final

(32) Shore-side electricity facilities 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, mainly at berth in ports. The public health and climatological benefits of using onshore-power supply (OPS) over other options that use generators on board of vessels (running mostly on fossil fuels) are prominent in terms of air quality for urban areas surrounding ports. 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. In addition, a binding mandate needs to be in place that ensures that: if OPS infrastructure is available, it is used.

(32 b) The prioritisation of certain segments of shipping for the provision and use of shore-side electricity should not exempt the other segments from contributing to the climate and zero pollution goals. The ultimate goal should be to achieve zero-GHG emission and zero-pollutants at berth for all sea-going vessels and inland-going vessels in EU ports, including in ports outside the TEN- T Network.

(32 c) It is important to avoid stranded assets and make sure that the public and private investments that are made today are future proof and contributing to the climate neutral pathway as set out by the EU Green Deal. The deployment of shore- side electricity (SSE) in maritime ports has to be seen together with the current and future deployment of equivalent alternative zero-GHG emission (and zero- pollutants) technologies to SSE, in particular those technologies that deliver emission and pollutants reductions both at berth and during navigation;

(33) Container ships and passenger ships, being the ship categories which are producing the highest amount of emissions per ship at berth, should as a priority be provided with shore-side electricity supply. In order to take into account power demand characteristics while at berth of different passenger ships, as well as port operational characteristics, it is necessary to distinguish between the passenger ship requirements for ro-ro passenger ships and high speed passenger vessels, and those for other passenger ships. However, this should not limit ports to tackle other segments as well and work towards including all segments in the pathway towards zero-GHG emissions and zero- pollutants at berth.

1. Relevant, consistent and clear information shall be made available as regards motor vehicles which can be regularly fuelled with individual fuels placed on the market, or recharged by recharging points. To that end, Member States shall ensure that information shall be made available in motor vehicle manuals, at refuelling and recharging points, on motor vehicles and in motor vehicle dealerships in their territory. This requirement shall apply to all motor vehicles, and their motor vehicle manuals, placed on the market after 18 November 2016.
