Proposal for a directive
Recital 5
Recital 5
(5) Innovation of new technologies helps to lower vehicle emissions, supporting the decarbonisation of the transport sector. An increased uptake of low- and zero-emission road vehicles is likely to reduce emissions of CO2 and certain pollutant emissions (particulate matter, nitrogen oxides and non-methane hydrocarbons) and to promote competitiveness and growth of the European industry in the increasing global markets for low- and zero-emission vehicles. Moreover the principle of technological neutrality has to be the very basic principle of any effort in order to ensure and stimulate a competitive environment and encourage further research and innovation in this field.

Recital 9
(9) Extending the scope of the Directive by including practices such as lease, rental and hire-purchase of vehicles, as well as contracts for public road transport services, special purpose road transport passenger services, non- scheduled passenger transport and hire of buses and coaches with drivers as well as specific postal and courier services and waste refusal services ensures that all relevant procurement practices are covered, with keeping in mind the possibility to extend its scope to the rail sector in the future. However the existing contracts should not be retroactively affected by this directive.

Recital 10
(10) There is widespread support from key stakeholders for a definition of clean vehicles taking account of reduction requirements for greenhouse gases and air pollutant emissions from light- and heavy- duty vehicles. To ensure that there are adequate incentives to supporting market- uptake of low- and zero-emission vehicles in the Union, provisions for their public procurement under this amendment should be aligned with provisions of Union legislation on CO2 emission performance of cars and vans for the post-2020 period26 . Action carried out under the amended Directive will contribute to compliance with the requirements of these standards. A more ambitious approach for public procurement can provide an important additional market stimulus. _________________ 26The accounting of CO2 emissions should be based on a well-to-wheel approach in order to do justice to the entire fuel supply chain from the extraction phase to the tailpipe. This will provide a more accurate account of the overall emissions of a particular vehicle. Therefore, the Commission should establish the methodology for recording well-to-wheel emissions by 1 January 2022 at the latest, and adjust tables 2 and 3 accordingly. _________________ 26 COM(2017) 676 final COM(2017) 676 final
Amendment 75 #
(12) Setting minimum targets for clean vehicle procurement by 2025 and by 2030 at Member State level should contribute to policy certainty for markets where investments in low- and zero-emission mobility are warranted. The minimum targets support market creation throughout the Union. They provide time for the adjustment of public procurement processes and give a clear market signal. The Impact Assessment notes that Member States increasingly set targets, depending on their economic capacity and how serious the problem is. Different targets should be set for different Member States in accordance with their economic capacity (Gross Domestic Product per capita) and exposure to pollution (urban population density). Considering that these parameters are quite often not uniform within a Member State, an assessment of their reliability will be necessary so that the methodology can eventually be complemented. Minimum procurement targets should be complemented by the obligation of the contracting authorities, entities and operators to consider relevant energy and environmental aspects in all their procurement procedures. The Territorial Impact Assessment of this amended Directive illustrated that the impact will be evenly distributed among regions in the Union.

Recital 13
Recital 13
(13) The maximum impact can be achieved if public procurement of clean vehicles is targeted in areas that have a relatively high degree of air pollution. Public authorities in Member States are encouraged to particularly focus on those areas when concluding the implementation of their domestic minimum targets and to reflect related action in their reporting under this amended Directive. In order to avoid disproportionate burden and optimise the potential results of this Directive, appropriate technical assistance should be provided to the public authorities.
