(62) The European Strategy for a low- carbon mobility of July 2016 pointed out that food-based biofuels have a limited role in decarbonising the transport sector and should be gradually phased out and replaced by. In order to support the uptake of advanced biofuels. T and to prepare for the transition towards advanced biofuels and minimise the overall indirect land-use change impacts, it is appropriate to reduce the amount of biofuels and bioliquids produced from food and feed crops that can be counted towards the Union target set out in this Directivestore investors' confidence in the mid to long term, the amount of sustainable crop-based biofuels that can be counted towards the Union target for the transport sector should not exceed 7% of the final consumption of energy, for the period 2021-2030.

(65) The promotion of low carbon fossil fuels that are produced from fossil wastelow carbon fuel streams can also contribute towards the policy objectives of energy diversification and transport decarbonisation. It is therefore appropriate to include those fuels in the incorporation obligation on fuel suppliers.

Recital 101
(101) Since the objectives of this Directive, namely to achieve at least 27% share of energy from renewable sources in the Union's gross final consumption of energy and a 10% share of energy from renewable sources in each Member State's transport energy consumption by 2030, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States but can rather, by reason of the scale of the action, be better achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union . In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Directive does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve those objectives.

Proposal for a directive
Article 2 – paragraph 2 – point f f
Article 2 – paragraph 2 – point f f
(ff) ‘waste-based fossillow carbon fuels’ means liquid and gaseous fuels produced from gaseous waste streams of non-renewable origin, including waste processing gases and exhaust gases;, being gaseous effluents which the holder is required to discard and which are generated as an unavoidable and not intentional consequence of the manufacturing or production of goods for commercial purposes. The amount of gaseous wastes or by-products used for "low carbon fuels", cannot be credited under other emissions reduction schemes, such as the EU Emission Trading Scheme, and should be applied based on a full material life cycle approach.

Article 3 – paragraph 1
Article 3 – paragraph 1
1. Member States shall collectively ensure that the share of energy from renewable sources in the Union's gross final consumption of energy in 2030 is at least 27%. In this context, the contribution of energy from renewable sources in the transport sector of each Member State shall be at least 10% of the energy mix in transport by 2030. The contribution from sustainable crop-based biofuels in transport shall not exceed 7% of the calculation of the Union's gross final consumption of energy, for the period 2021-2030.

Recital 9
(9) The national targets set for 2020 should constitute Member States' minimum contribution to the new 2030 framework. Under no circumstances the national share of renewables should fall below such contribution and, in case this happens, the relevant Member States should take the appropriate measures to ensure that this baseline is maintained as well as contribute to the financial instrument referred to in Regulation [Governance].

Article 7 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 4
Article 7 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 4
For the calculation of a Member State's gross final consumption of energy from renewable energy sources, the contribution from biofuels and bioliquids, as well as from biomass fuels consumed in transport, if produced from food or feed crops, shall be no more than 7% of final consumption of energy in road and rail transport in that Member State. This limit shall be reduced to 3,8% in 2030 following the trajectory set out in part A of Annex X. Member States may set a lower limit and may distinguish between different types of biofuels, bioliquids and biomass fuels produced from food and feed crops, for instance by setting a lower limit for the contribution from food or feed crop based biofuels produced from oil crops, taking into account indirect land use change.

Recital 10
Recital 10
(10) Member States should take additional measures in the event that the share of renewables at the Union level does not meet the Union trajectory towards the at least 27% renewable energy target. As set out in Regulation [Governance], if an ambition gap is identified by the Commission during the assessment of the Integrated National Energy and Climate Plans, the Commission may take measures at Union level in order to ensure the achievement of the target. If a delivery gap is identified by the Commission during the assessment of the Integrated National Energy and Climate Progress Reports, Member States should apply the measures set out in Regulation [Governance], which are giving them enough flexibility to choose.

Recital 56
(56) Representing around half of the final energy consumption of the Union, heating and cooling is considered to be a key sector in accelerating the decarbonisation of the energy system. Moreover, it is also a strategic sector in terms of energy security, as it is projected that around 40% of the renewable energy consumption by 2030 should come from renewable heating and cooling. The absence of a harmonised strategy at Union level,contributing to emission reductions. Moreover, it is also a sector with high share of households affected by low income according to national average. A stronger requirement in impact assessment guidelines should be introduced to evaluate the limpackt of internalisation of external costs and the fragmentation of heating and cooling markets have led to relatively slow progress in this sector so farpolicies on vulnerable consumers and households with low income compared to national average.
