(3a) According to JRC well-to-wheels analysis of EU fuel and power train options1a, RFNBO such as synthetic diesel offer the advantage of being a drop-in fuel, easily usable in standard infrastructures and powertrains. Their GHG performance is mainly determined by the source of energy used for production. Their conversion from residual feedstocks or renewable electricity can offer remarkable emission savings, approaching zero carbon emissions well-to-wheel. __________________ 1a Prussi, M., Yugo, M., De Prada, L., Padella, M., Edwards.

(4) The initiatives on ReFuelEU aviation48 and FuelEU maritime49 should boost the production and uptake of sustainable alternative fuels in aviation and maritime transport. While the fuel use requirements for the sustainable aviation fuels can largely rely on the existing refuelling infrastructure, investments are needed for the electricity supply of stationary aircraft. Moreover, Member States should assess the current state and future development of the hydrogen market for aviation as well as a feasibility study on the deployment of the relevant infrastructure to power aircrafts including, where appropriate, a deployment plan for alternative fuels infrastructure in airports, in particular for hydrogen and electric recharging for aircrafts. The FuelEU maritime initiative sets requirements in particular for the use of on shore power that can only be fulfilled if an adequate level of on shore power supply is deployed in TEN-T ports. However those initiatives do not contain any provisions on the required fuel infrastructure which are a prerequisite that the targets can be met. __________________ 48 COM(2021) 561. 49 COM(2021) 562.

(21a) The possibility of bidirectional charging at both private and publicly accessible infrastructure can be an incentive to encourage people to purchase electric vehicles, as they can then be used for mobility as well as energy storage. Therefore, a sufficient number of private and publicly accessible charging stations should allow for smart, bidirectional charging.

Recital 4 a (new)
(4 a) In order to ensure a coherent legislative framework for the use and deployment of alternative fuels this Regulation should be aligned with the ReFuelEU aviation FuelEU Maritime, the revision of CO2 emission performance for new passenger cars and light duty vehicles Regulation, the CO2 emission performance for heavy duty vehicles Regulation and its upcoming revisions, and the revision of Directive 2003/96/EC (Energy Taxation Directive).

Recital 5
(5) Therefore all modes of transport should be addressed in one instrument which should take into account a variety of alternative fuels. The use of zero-emission powertrain technologies is at different stages of maturity in the different modes of transport. In particular, in the road sector, a rapid uptake of battery-electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles is taking place and therefore requiring higher targets for this mature technology. Hydrogen fuel-cell road vehicles are available to markets, as well. In addition, smaller hydrogen and battery electric vessels and hydrogen fuel- cell trains are currently being deployed in different projects and in first commercial operations, with full commercial roll out expected in the next years. In contrast, the aviation and waterborne sectors continue to be dependent on liquid and gaseous fuels, as zero- and low-emission powertrain solutions are expected to enter the market only around 2030 and in particular for the aviation sector even later, with full commercialisation taking its time, therefore encouraging a technologically neutral approach to encourage maturity of developing technologies. The use of fossil gaseous or liquid fuels is only possible if it is clearly embedded into a clear decarbonisation pathway that is in line with the long-term objective of climate neutrality in the Union, is endorsed by a Cost-Benefit Analysis (CAB) and ensures it is the Best Alternative Technology (BAT), requiring increasing blending with or replacement by renewable fuels such as bio-methane, advanced biofuels or renewable and low- carbon synthetic gaseous and liquid fuels as soon as possible.

(9) The deployment of publicly accessible recharging infrastructure for light-duty electric vehicles has been uneven across the Union and across regions. Continued uneven distribution would jeopardize the uptake of such vehicles, limiting connectivity across the Union. Continuing divergence in policy ambitions and approaches at national level will not create the long-term certainty needed for substantive market investment. Mandatory minimum targets for Member States at national level should therefore provide policy orientations and complement National Policy Frameworks. That approach should combine national fleet based targets with distance-based targets for the trans-European network for transport (TEN-T). National fleet based targets should ensure that vehicle uptake in each Member State is matched with the deployment of sufficient publicly accessible recharging infrastructure while allowing for the market to self regulate once a certain penetration of electric vehicles has been reached. Distance-based targets for the TEN-T network should ensure full coverage of electric recharging points along the Union’s main road networks and thereby ensure easy and seamless travel throughout the Union. This targets shall be complemented with additional recharging infrastructure across all regions to ensure an even deployment across all territory, including in depopulated or sparseley populated areas.

(11) Implementation in Member States should ensure that a sufficient number of publicly accessible recharging points is installed, in particular at public transport stations, such as port passenger terminals, airports or railway stations and support multimodal travel. A sufficient number of publicly accessible fast recharging points dedicated to light-duty vehicles should also be deployed to increase consumer convenience in particular across the TEN-T network to ensure full cross-border connectivity and allow electric vehicles to circulate throughout the Union.
