Recital 9
(9) The deployment of publicly accessible recharging infrastructure for light-duty electric vehicles has been uneven across the Union. 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. 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. However, TEN-T network characteristics, such as the average traffic density and population, shall be taken into account when specifying the mandatory minimum distance-based targets.

(14) A sufficient number of publicly accessible fast recharging points dedicated to heavy-duty vehicles should also be deployed along the TEN-T network to ensure full connectivity throughout the Union. That infrastructure should have sufficient power output to allow the recharge of the vehicle within the driver’s legal break time. In addition to fast recharging points along the network, heavy-duty vehicles should also be able to use publicly accessible recharging infrastructure for overnight recharging along the main transport network to specifically support the electrification of the long haul sector. However, TEN-T network characteristics, such as the average traffic density and population, shall be taken into account when specifying the mandatory minimum distance-based targets.

Recital 26
(26) Hydrogen-powered motor vehicles have at present very low market penetration rates. However, a build-up of sufficient hydrogen refuelling infrastructure is essential in order to make large-scale hydrogen-powered motor vehicle deployment possible as envisaged in the Commission’s hydrogen strategy for a climate-neutral Europe54 . Currently, hydrogen refuelling points are only deployed in a few Member States and are largely not suitable for heavy-duty vehicles, not allowing for a circulation of hydrogen vehicles across the Union. Mandatory deployment targets for publicly accessible hydrogen refuelling points should ensure that a sufficiently dense network of hydrogen refuelling points is deployed across the TEN-T core network to allow for the seamless travel of hydrogen fuelled light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles throughout the Union. However, TEN-T network characteristics, such as the average traffic density and population, shall be taken into account when specifying the mandatory minimum distance-based targets. __________________ 54 COM(2020) 301 final.

Article 6 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 1
To that end Member States shall ensure that by 31 December 2030 publicly accessible hydrogen refuelling stations with a minimum capacity of 2 t/day and equipped with at least a 700 bars dispenser are deployed with a maximum distance of 150 km in-between them along the TEN-T core and the TEN-T comprehensive network, except with a maximum distance of 250 km in scarcely populated regions or TEN-T core networks with lower average traffic density. Liquid hydrogen shall be made available at publicly accessible refuelling stations with a maximum distance of 450 km in-between them.
