(7) The REPowerEU Communication13 outlined a plan to make the Union independent from Russian fossil fuels well before the end of this decade. The Communication highlights the importance, among others, of further increasing the efficiency and reducing fossil consumption in the transport sector, where electrification can be combined with the use of fossil-free renewable fuels, including hydrogen to replace fossil fuels. __________________ 13 Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the European Council, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions, REPowerEU Plan, COM(2022)230 final of 18.5.2022.

(8) In order to contribute to the reduction in net greenhouse gas emissions of at least 55 % by 2030 compared to 1990 and in conformity with the energy efficiency first principle, it is necessary to strengthenassess the reduction requirements set out in Regulation (EU) 2019/1242 for heavy-duty vehicles, by an intensive use of carbon neutral fuels. A clear pathway also needs to be set for further reductions beyond 2030 to contribute to achieving the climate neutrality objective by 2050.

(8a) Strengthening CO2 emission reduction requirements for heavy-duty vehicles and rolling-out the necessary recharging and refuelling infrastructure will play a key role in reducing the emissions of the entire heavy-duty vehicles fleet to zero as soon as possible and by 2050 at the very latest, but it should also be complemented by other initiatives aiming at accelerating a modal shift from road to rail and increasing rail freight.

Recital 9
(9) The strengthened CO2 emission reduction requirements should incentivise an increasing share of zero-emission vehicles being deployed on the Union market whilst providing benefits to users and citizens in terms of air quality and energy savings, as well as ensuring that innovation in the automotive value chain can be maintained. Zero-emission vehicles currently include battery electric vehicles, fuel-cell and other hydrogen-powered vehicles, and technological innovations are continuing.

(10) Against that background, new strengthened CO2 emission reduction targets should be set for new consistent with the avy-duty vehicles for the period 2030 onwards. Those targets should be set at a level that will deliver a strong signal to accelerateailability of enabling conditions, namely sufficiently dense network of alternative fuels infrastructure, with the aim of promoting the uptake of zero-emission vehicles on the Union market and to stimulate innovation in zero-emission technologies in a cost- efficient way.

(15) Due to the heterogeneous structure of the total truck fleet, it is not possible to fully predict whether for all niche uses, technological developments will be quick enough to ensure that zero-emission tailpipe technology isand that vehicles powered by carbon neutral fuels are a viable choice. This may include uses such as long-haul heavy- duty vehicles in specific territorial morphology and meteorological circumstances, coaches and lorries for critical security and safety applications that cannot be fulfilled by zero-emission tailpipe technologies. The vehicles in question should constitute a limin adequated share of the entire heavy-duty vehicle fleet, on the basis of typology of missions. In view of such considerations, some margin in the 204028 target should be left to accommodate developments in technology yet to occur. For this reason it is vital to consider the full life-cycle CO2 emissions from heavy-duty vehicles at Union level. Therefore, at the latest one year after the entry into force of the Regulation, the Commission should evaluate the possibility of developing a common Union methodology for the assessment and the consistent data reporting of the full life-cycle CO2 emissions of heavy-duty vehicles placed on the Union market. Where appropriate, the Commission should adopt follow-up measures, including legislative proposals.

Recital 17
Recital 17
(17) With the stricter Union fleet-wide targets from 2030 onwards, manufacturers will have to deploy significantly more zero-emission vehicles on the Union market. In that context, the incentive mechanism for zero- and low-emission vehicles (‘ZLEV’) would no longer serve its original purpose and would risk undermining the effectiveness of Regulation (EU) 2019/1242. The ZLEV incentive mechanism should therefore be removed as of 20340.

Vocational vehicles, such as garbage trucks, tippers or concrete mixers, should continue to be exempted from the calculation of average specific CO2 emissions of manufacturers. On the other hand, zero-and-Low emission vocational vehicles could be used for the purpose of this Regulation and for the purpose of determining manufacturer's compliance with its specific CO2 emissions targets.

(42a) This regulation aims to accelerate the transition towards carbon neutral mobility in a technologically neutral way. As a complement to the efforts towards an increasing availability of zero emission vehicles, a mechanism based on a carbon correction factor is introduced to duly account the contribution from the use of sustainable renewable transport fuels including biofuels, biomass fuels as well as RFNBOs when assessing the compliance with CO2 emissions reductions of newly registered heavy-duty vehicles.
