15 Amendments of Răzvan POPA related to 2017/0291(COD)

Amendment 61 #
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 of transport.

Amendment 69 #
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 the CO2 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 on the entire vehicle and not only on its components and the maximum tail-pipe emission expressed in CO2 g/km and real driving pollutant emissions.

Amendment 72 #
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 State, 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 77 #
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 80 #
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 energy-efficient road transport vehicles. For this purpose, it would be appropriate to develop EU financial mechanisms to assist in the implementation of the requirements of this Directive.

Amendment 104 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 3
Directive 2009/33/EU
Article 4 – paragraph 1 – point 4 a (new)
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 the 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.

Directive 2009/33/EU
Article 4 – paragraph 1 – point 4 a (new)
4a. 'sustainable lifecycle vehicle' means a vehicle which is produced by using significantly lower emissions than comparable vehicle types, and is designed to allow for a more sustainable end of life, including reuse and recycling potential of its components. The Commission shall be empowered to adopt a delegated act by [18 months after entry into force] with a more precise definition.

1. Member States shall ensure that purchase, lease, rent or hire-purchase of road transport vehicles, and public service contracts on public passenger transport by road and rail and public service contracts as referred to in Article 3 of this Directive comply with the minimum procurement targets for light-duty vehicles referred to in table 4 of the Annex and for heavy-duty vehicles referred to in Table 5 in the Annex By 30 September 2018, the Commission shall carry out an assessment and submit a report to the European Parliament and the Council with the aim of setting minimum procurement targets for light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles at Member State level which shall be proportionate to the gross domestic product per capita of each Member State. That report shall be accompanied, if appropriate, by legislative proposals.
