Amendment 55 #
Proposal for a directive
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. The Directive should foresee the possibility to extend the scope to the rail sector at a later stage.

Amendment 71 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 11 a (new)
(11a) All clean and energy-efficient transport options must be considered. Manufacturers should have the flexibility to further develop and use neutral technologies to meet CO2 reduction objectives. Competition between different solutions and manufacturers will encourage innovation and benefit everyone. This will allow a smooth and cost-efficient transition to the decarbonisation transport.

Amendment 89 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 14
(14) Life-cycle costing is an important tool for contracting authorities and entities to cover energy and environmental costs during the life-cycle of a vehicle, including the cost of greenhouse gas emission and other pollutant emissions on the basis of a relevant methodology to determine their monetary value. Given the scarce use of the methodology for the calculation of operational lifetime costs under Directive 2009/33/EU and the information provided by contracting authorities and entities on the use of own methodologies tailored to their specific circumstances and needs, there should be no methodology mandatory to use, but contracting authorities, contracting entities or operators should be able to choose any life-costing methodology in order to support their procurement processes. The assessment of theCO2 emissions should consider the entire lifecycle of the vehicles including during the production, use and end of life, taking into account disposal and recycling. Therefore, contracting authorities and other entities should focus the entire vehicle and not only on its components and the maximum tail-pipe emission expressed in CO2g/km and real driving pollutant emissions.

Amendment 99 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 16 a (new)
(16a) EU financial instruments should be mobilised in order to support Member States at national, regional and local level to achieve the targets under this Directive. Minimum binding targets for charging points per members states, together with direct infrastructure financing and financing of electric vehicle charging points and hydrogen vehicle filling stations should be considered as well, where not commercially viable on their own. For this purpose funding instruments such as the Connecting Europe Facility supporting the development of high performing, sustainable and efficiently interconnected trans-European networks in the fields of transport and the European Fund for Strategic Investments or the Cleaner Transport Facility supporting the deployment of cleaner transport vehicles and their associated infrastructure needs could be mobilised. Advisory Hubs should play a key role in this transition by facilitating and promoting investments and supporting institutional capacities.

Amendment 107 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 18 a (new)
(18a) The requirements of this Directive and the new minimum procurement targets may lead to additional financial resources for contracting authorities. Therefore, it would be appropriate to seek financial mechanisms to implement the requirements of this Directive. The Union's financial policy and in particular the future Multiannual Financial Framework after 2020 should be in line with the new requirements for the promotion of clean and energy efficient road transport vehicles and support the decarbonisation of transport and the use of cleaner road transport vehicles.

Amendment 109 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 19 a (new)
(19a) Enhanced environmental audits and tests should be envisaged, encouraging local authorities to purchase, rent and lease such energy-efficient road transport vehicles. For this purpose it would be appropriate to develop EU financial mechanisms to assist with the implementation of the requirements of this Directive.

Amendment 151 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 3 Directive 2009/33/EC
4a. 'sustainable battery' means a battery for which the whole value chain is taken into account and the final battery product is fit for reuse and/or recycling. The Commission shall be empowered to adopt a delegated act by [18 months after entry into force] with a more precise definition based on an assessment of the CO2 emissions considering whole chain e.g. the entire lifecycle of the battery including full lifecycle of carbon emissions during the production process and end of life carbon footprint of the battery.
