Amendment 22 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 1 b (new)
Paragraph 1 b (new)
1b. Underlines that Europe has the potential to become a forerunner in clean transport and lead this global shift. Notes that the clean energy transition offers plenty of new growth opportunities for the industry and strengthens the energy security of Europe;
Amendment 25 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 1 c (new)
Paragraph 1 c (new)
1c. Stresses the importance of global and European climate targets; calls for policy frameworks that are technology- neutral.
Amendment 26 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 1 d (new)
Paragraph 1 d (new)
1d. Underlines that although more than 65 % of battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles are produced outside the Union and new mobility will lead to a shift in skills, it is crucial to ensure the momentum to boost our industry and create new jobs in Europe; notes that it is crucial to boost our battery industry by creating sustainable battery cell manufacturing in Europe and ensure a full EU-based value chain; calls on the Member States to accelerate the uptake of research related to electro-mobility by making full use of EU funds; calls, therefore, for adequate and ambitious EU funding under the next multiannual financial framework to address potential gaps; notes that EU funding should be allocated through existing financial instruments.
Amendment 30 #
Motion for a resolution
Recital G
Recital G
G. whereas shifting towards alternative fuels and powertrains represents an opportunity for European industry rather than a threat, as the other main automotive markets such as China and California have already introduced mandatory shares of low and zero- emission vehicles for manufacturers’ fleetsto reaffirm its technological leadership;
Amendment 33 #
Motion for a resolution
Recital H
Recital H
H. whereas the recast of the Directive on emission standards for new passenger cars and for new light commercial vehicles will hopefully set ambitious reduction targets and incentivise low and zero- emission vehicles, whilst preserving a technology neutral approach, thus leading the way to a decarbonised European vehicle fleet, which will require the deployment of an adequate infrastructure network for alternative fuels;
Amendment 36 #
Motion for a resolution
Recital I a (new)
Recital I a (new)
I a. whereas lithium-ion cells, a key component of electric vehicles batteries, are nearly all made outside of the European Union, mainly in Asia;
Amendment 38 #
Amendment 41 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 3 a (new)
Paragraph 3 a (new)
3a. Notes that the solutions for the infrastructure should be market-based. The distribution station network of different fuels and the recharging points accessible to the public required for electric vehicles must be mainly built on market terms.
Amendment 43 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 3 b (new)
Paragraph 3 b (new)
3b. Stresses that urban areas and TEN-T network should be a priority for the infrastructure for alternative fuels.
Amendment 53 #
2. Calls, however, on the Commission to bring forward a revision of Directive 2014/94/EU within the shortest possible timeframe in order to fill the gaps in alternative fuels infrastructure throughout the European Union, while maintaining the current definition of alternative fuels as listed in Article 2 of the Directive 2014/94/EU, in order to provide a stable and consistent legislative framework for investments;
Amendment 63 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 3
Paragraph 3
3. Notes that the Commission’s evaluation of the National Framework Plans (NFPs) reveals differing levels of effort and ambition between Member States and that the deployment of alternative fuels is falling short; calls therefore on the Commission to replace NFPs with mandatory objectives such as those put forward in the 2013 proposalore efficient instruments that are overarching but also flexible enough given the different level of alternative fuel infrastracture in Member States, while also taking into account the projected and realised uptake of alternative-fuel vehicles and their technological progress, as well as the goal of having a trans- European infrastructure network for all alternative fuels;
Amendment 87 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 5 a (new)
Paragraph 5 a (new)
5 a. Calls on the Commission to consider the entire range of alternative fuels solutions and to take into account their affordability in the process of decarbonisation of the transport sector;
Amendment 99 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 7
Paragraph 7
7. Suggests setting up a European Clean Mobility Fund to coverthat the estimated necessary investment of EUR 25 billion up to 2025; calls for the fund to be co-financ should be founded, with the European Union contributing 10 % and 90 % coming from industry, notably manufacturers, suppliers, energy and fuel producers and other interested parties; suggests that, by contributing to the fund, companies or consortia should be granted preferential access to grants and loans provided by the CEF, EIB and EC IPE; requests that financial resources from the fund should be awarded according to the criteria of feasibility, European added value, the achievement of deployment goals and cohesion policy; asks that the INEA, which already oversees the CEF, become the responsible agency;
Amendment 123 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 9 a (new)
Paragraph 9 a (new)
9 a. Underlines the correlation between the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure across the European Union and the consumers' acceptance of low and zero-emissions vehicles; therefore, calls for an important roll-out of refuelling and recharging points that would stimulate consumers' demand for alternatively-powered vehicles;
