19. Welcomes the Commission’s first steps to introduce fuel standards for heavy commercial vehicles (HCVs) and CO2 limits; on this point, would like to see rapid development in the infrastructure for alternative fuels throughout the TEN- T network; is of the opinion that increased size of HCVs would entail a deep revision of the infrastructure and operational standards of the TEN-T network and that alternatives such as reducing ‘empty returns’ could achieve greater efficiency gains with less impact on the infrastructure;
