Proposal for a regulation
Recital 18

(18) A recharging station is the single physical installation for the recharging of electric vehicles. Every station has a theoretical maximum power output, expressed in kW. Every station has at least one recharging point that can serve only one vehicle at a time. The number of recharging points at a recharging station determine the number of vehicles that can be recharged at that station at any given time. Where more than one vehicle recharges at that recharging station at a given time, the maximum power output is distributed to the different recharging points, such that the power provided at each individual recharging point is lower than the power output of that station and the power output of all recharging points is comparable. A recharging pool consists of one or more recharging stations at a specific location, including, as the case may be, the dedicated parking lots adjacent to them. For the targets set in this Regulation for recharging pools, the minimum power output required for those recharging pools ~~could~~may be provided by one or more recharging stations.

(21) The increasing number of electric vehicles in road, rail, maritime and other transport modes will require that recharging operations are optimised and managed in a way that does not cause congestion and takes full advantage of the availability of renewable electricity and low electricity prices in the system. Smart recharging in particular can facilitate the integration of electric vehicles into the electricity system further as it enables demand response through aggregation and through price based demand response. System integration can further be facilitated through bi-directional recharging (vehicle-to-grid). All normal recharging points at which vehicles are typically parked for a longer period should therefore support smart recharging.

Smart recharging in particular can facilitate the integration of electric vehicles into the electricity system further as it enables demand response through aggregation and through price based demand response. It should be possible that smart recharging is realised on normal charging speeds as well as during fast charging through response to dynamic price signals or optimisation of power flow. System integration can further be facilitated through bi-directional recharging (vehicle- to-grid). Bidirectional charging points enable grid stabilisation through the rolling stock of batteries at low system cost and create business opportunities for electric vehicle drivers. All normal recharging points at which vehicles are typically parked for a longer period should therefore support smart and bidirectional recharging.

(21b) The climate mitigation benefits of zero-emission vehicles are maximised when the electricity and fuel used by such vehicles are produced from renewable energy. While Directive 2018/2001/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council accelerates the roll-out of renewable energies, this Regulation directly creates demand for such energies in the transport sector by requiring that electricity, hydrogen and ammonia supplied to aircrafts and on-ground vehicles in airports, as well as to vessels, come from renewable energy, possibly produced on-site. It indirectly creates demand for renewable electricity also by increasing consumer awareness through the requirement for charge point operators to disclose the renewable energy content of the supplied electricity on the basis of their contract with an electricity provider.

(22) The development of infrastructure for electric vehicles, the interaction of that infrastructure with the electricity system, and the rights and responsibilities assigned to the different actors in the electric mobility market, have to be consistent with the principles established under Directive (EU) 2019/944. In that sense, distribution system operators should cooperate on a non-discriminatory basis with any person establishing or operating publicly accessible recharging points ~~and Member States should~~. Distribution system operators should also ensure transparency and timely processing of grid connection requests and Member States should introduce clear and reasonable time limits of 8-12 weeks for normal power charging infrastructure and 4-6 months for fast power charging infrastructure in terms of period between connection request and realization of that connection. Member states should also ensure that the electricity supply for a recharging point can be the subject of a contract with a supplier other than the entity supplying electricity to the household or premises where this recharging point is located. The access of Union electricity suppliers to recharging points should be without prejudice to the derogations under Article 66 of Directive (EU) 2019/944.

(24) Price transparency is crucial to ensure seamless and easy recharging and refuelling. Users of alternative fuel vehicles should be given accurate price information before the start of the recharging or refuelling service. The price should be communicated in a clearly structured manner to allow end users to identify the different cost components. Irrespective of other ways of communicating it, the price must always be stated at the relevant recharging or refuelling station.

Recital 1

(1) The roll out of alternative fuels infrastructure is a key enabler for the shift towards a zero-emission, highly energy efficient and fully renewable- energy based transport system in Europe, in line with the Union's climate neutrality objective and the Paris 1.5°C goal. Such roll out should be rapid, as the IPCC 1.5°C report1a warns that emissions must be reduced significantly this decade and that, if action is insufficient now, it will likely be impossible to make up for the deficit later. The deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure also plays a role in the achievement of the Union's Zero Pollution ambition; today, combustion engine vehicles are responsible for more than two thirds of all NOx emissions and account for a significant proportion of the total emissions of other pollutants in Europe. Directive 2014/94/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council43 laid down a framework for the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure. The Commission Communication on the application of that Directive44 points to the uneven development of recharging and refuelling infrastructure across the Union and the lack of interoperability and user friendliness. It notes that the absence of a clear common methodology for setting targets and adopting measures under the National Policy Frameworks required by Directive 2014/94/EU has led to a situation whereby the level of ambition in target setting and supporting policies varies greatly among Member States. __________________ 1aIPCC, 2018: Global Warming of 1.5°C.

(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~~Advanced biofuels and synthetic fuels for aviation ~~fuels~~ can largely rely on the existing refuelling infrastructure, investments are needed for the electricity ~~supply of stationary aircraft~~and hydrogen supply at airports and may be needed – in addition to fossil fuel-free stationary aircraft powering and ground-based vehicles charging – in the future for the recharging and refuelling of aircrafts, when zero-emission technologies for aviation such as aircrafts propelled by renewables-based electricity and hydrogen emerge. 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~~ports. When the technologies for vessels powered with synthetic fuels other than synthetic diesel grow, the associated refuelling infrastructure will be required.

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. The FuelEU maritime initiative sets requirements ~~in particular for the use of on shore power~~for ship operators of container and passenger ships, including operators of ro-ro passenger ships, high speed passenger crafts and cruise ships for the use of zero- emission technologies and in particular for on-shore power while at berth that can only be fulfilled if an adequate level of on shore power supply is deployed in ~~TEN-T~~all Union ports. However those initiatives do not contain any provisions on the required ~~fuel~~ infrastructure which are a prerequisite ~~that the targets can be met~~for the targets to be met. The review of Directive 2014/94/EU notes that the deployment of on-shore power supply infrastructure in ports has been limited in most Member States. Therefore, binding targets for the timely deployment of the relevant infrastructure should ensure that ship operators have sufficient shore-side electricity supply in Union maritime ports to meet the obligations set by FuelEU maritime. __________________ 48 COM(2021) 561. 49 COM(2021) 562.

(1) The roll out of alternative fuels infrastructure is a key enabler for the shift towards a zero-emission, highly energy efficient and fully renewable- energy based transport system in Europe, in line with the Union's climate neutrality objective and the Paris 1.5°C goal. Such roll-out should be rapid, as the IPCC1.5°C report1b warns that emissions must be reduced significantly this decade and that, if action is insufficient now, it will likely be impossible to make up for the deficit later. The deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure also plays a role in the achievement of the Union's Zero Pollution ambition; today, combustion engine vehicles are responsible for more than two thirds of all NOx emissions and account for a significant proportion of the total emissions of other pollutants in Europe. Directive 2014/94/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council43 laid down a framework for the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure. The Commission Communication on the application of that Directive44 points to the uneven development of recharging and refuelling infrastructure across the Union and the lack of interoperability and user friendliness. It notes that the absence of a clear common methodology for setting targets and adopting measures under the National Policy Frameworks required by Directive 2014/94/EU has led to a situation whereby the level of ambition in target setting and supporting policies varies greatly among Member States. _________________ 1bIPCC, 2018: Global Warming of 1.5°C.

(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. 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. Moreover the infrastructure for renewable fuels bunkering of ships should gain special attention throughout the ports of Europe to fast track the decarbonisation of ships. The heavy-duty vehicle renewable fuels infrastructure should focus on available renewable fuel technology and increase the level of ambition in the (bio-) LNG infrastructure throughout Europe to allow fast decarbonisation of heavy-duty vehicles, whilst new technology for these vehicles can be further developed. _________________ 48 COM(2021) 561. 49 COM(2021) 562.

(5) Therefore all modes of transport should be addressed in one instrument which should take into account a variety of alternative fuels, the development of their market share and particularly their affordability. The use of zero-emission powertrain technologies and alternative fuels is at different stages of maturity in the different modes of transport and in different Member States and regions. In particular, in the road sector, a rapid uptake of battery-electric and plug-in hybrid passenger cars and light commercial vehicles is taking place. Hydrogen fuel-cell road vehicles are available to markets, as well. In addition, smaller hydrogen and battery electric vessels ~~and~~, hydrogen fuel-cell trains and solar-electric vehicles 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, as well as heavy-duty road transport 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. 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, requiring increasing blending with or replacement by renewable fuels such as ~~bio-methane, advanced biofuels~~gaseous or liquid bio-methane, biomass fuels, biofuels, advanced biofuels, recycled carbonfuels, renewable fuels of non- biological origin or renewable and low- carbon synthetic gaseous and liquid fuels.

(6) Such biofuels, advanced biofuels and synthetic fuels, substituting diesel, petrol and jet fuel, can be produced from different feedstock and can be blended into fossil fuels at very high blending ratios. They can be technically used with the current vehicle technology with minor or no adaptations. Renewable and bio-LNG can be used for heavy-duty transport, both road and maritime, as demonstrated by the fact that already 20% of gas used in road transport is bio-methane. Renewable methanol can also be used for inland navigation and short-sea shipping. Synthetic and paraffinic fuels have a potential to reduce the use of fossil fuel sources in the energy supply to transport. All of these fuels can be distributed, stored and used with the existing infrastructure or where necessary with infrastructure of the same kind. The potential of biogas as a renewable source should be taken into account and included in the definition of gas in the regulation.

(6 a) Biofuels from agricultural feedstock have a net impact on greenhouse gas emissions ranging from limited to negative, in the sense that net emissions may if fact increase. In many cases, their production also constitutes a threat to biodiversity, directly or indirectly. The use of biofuels from agricultural feedstock should therefore not be acknowledged as a measure to reduce net emissions of greenhouse gases.

(7) LNG is likely to play a continued role in maritime transport, where there is currently no economically viable zero- emission powertrain technology available. The Communication on the Smart and Sustainable Mobility Strategy points to zero-emission seagoing ships becoming market ready by 2030. Fleet conversion should take place gradually due to the long lifetime of the ships. Given the transitional role of LNG, the availability of LNG bunkering infrastructure in ports should be demand driven, in particular as regards new investments. Contrary to maritime transport, for inland waterways, with normally smaller vessels and shorter distances, zero-emission powertrain technologies, such as hydrogen and electricity, should enter the markets more quickly. LNG is expected to no longer play a significant role in that sector. Transport fuels such as LNG need increasingly to be decarbonised by blending/substituting with liquefied biomethane (bio-LNG) or renewable and low-carbon synthetic gaseous e-fuels (e-gas) for instance. Those decarbonised fuels can be used in the same infrastructure as gaseous fossil fuels thereby allowing for a gradual shift towards decarbonised fuels.

(8) In the heavy-duty road transport sector, LNG trucks are fully mature and can run on a high blend of bio-LNG. On the one hand, the common scenarios underpinning the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy and the Climate Target Plan as well as the revised “Fit for 55” modelling scenarios suggest some limited role of gaseous fuels that will increasingly be decarbonised in heavy-duty road transport especially in the long haul segment. On the other hand, LNG and bio-LNG are readily available and competitive solutions to cut GHG emissions of the heavy-duty sector, and LNG stations network in Europe remains insufficient in relation to the minimum requirements to match the demand and decarbonization needs of the sector towards 2030 and beyond. Furthermore, LPG and CNG vehicles for which already ~~a sufficient~~some infrastructure network exists across the Union are expected to gradually be replaced by zero emission drivetrains and ~~therefore only a limit~~climate-neutral alternative fuels, despite this is not being a existing market tendency yet. Therefore an extended targeted policy for LNG infrastructure deployment that can equally supply decarbonised fuels is considered necessary to close remaining gaps in the main networks. As the market for decarbonized heavy-duty vehicles is still developing, a variety of alternative technologies should be incentivized, including via infrastructure planning and adaptation, while taking into account market shares and traffic data.

(21 a) The climate mitigation benefits of zero-emission vehicles are maximised when the electricity and fuel used by such vehicles are produced from renewable energy. While Directive 2018/2001/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council accelerates the roll-out of renewable energy, this Regulation directly creates demand for such energies in the transport sector by requiring that electricity, hydrogen, methanol or ammonia supplied to vehicles, aircrafts and vessels, come from renewable energy, possibly produced on-site, and in the case of certain fuels, are produced with CO2 from direct air capture. It indirectly creates demand for renewable electricity also by increasing consumer awareness through the requirement for charge point operators to disclose the renewable energy content of the supplied electricity on the basis of their contract with an electricity provider.

To ensure that publicly accessible destination refuelling is possible at least in the main urban areas, all urban nodes as defined in Regulation (EU) No 1315/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council55 should provide such refuelling stations. Within the urban nodes, public authorities should consider to deploy the stations within multimodal freight centres in case they are not developed market-based, as those are not only the typical destination for heavy-duty vehicles but could also serve hydrogen to other transport modes, such as rail and inland shipping. _________________ 55 Regulation (EU) No 1315/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 on Union guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network and repealing Decision No 661/2010/EU (OJ L 348, 20.12.2013, p. 1).

(33) CAll shipping segments need to contribute to lowering emissions at berth. However, container ships and passenger ships, being the ship categories which are producing the highest amount of greenhouse gas emissions per ship at berth, should as a priority be provided with shore-side electricity supply. In order to take into account power demand characteristics while at berth of different passenger ships, as well as port operational characteristics, it is necessary to distinguish between the passenger ship requirements for ro-ro passenger ships and high speed passenger vessels, and those for otherBerths used by larger container vessels, exceeding 366 meters, which have due to the large power demand and high level of shore-power readiness the greatest potential to significantly reduce emissions at berth when using shore-side electricity (SSE), should have the highest priority in terms of implementation of shore-side electricity infrastructure. Once these berths have shore side electricity infrastructure other container vessels calling on these berths should also use the available infrastructure. In order to take into account power demand characteristics while at berth, as well as port operational characteristics, it is necessary to distinguish between the shore-side electricity (SSE)requirements for cruise ships and those for the other passenger ships, namely ferries, ro-ro passenger ships and high speed passenger ~~ship~~vessels.

(34) These targets should take into account the types of vessels served and their respective traffic volumes. Maritime ~~port~~terminals with low traffic volumes of certain ship categories, should be exempted from the mandatory requirements for the corresponding ship categories based on a minimum level of traffic volume per terminal, so as to avoid under used capacity being installed and to allow for the exclusion of terminals and/or berths which are normally/ not intended to be called at not called at by the segments that are prioritised for the use of shore-side electricity. Similarly, the mandatory targets should not aim to target maximum demand, but a sufficiently high volume, in order to avoid underused capacity and to take account of port operational characteristics. Maritime transport is an important link for the cohesion and economic development of islands as well as outermost regions in the Union. Energy production capacity in these ~~island~~areas may not always be sufficient to account for the power demand required to support the provision of shore-side electricity supply. In such a case islands and outermost regions should be exempted from this requirement unless and until such an electrical connection with the mainland has been completed or there is a sufficient locally generated capacity from clean energy sources.

(38 c) In view of legal certainty and long- term planning, the scope of the mandatory requirements for SSE in a certain port should be fixed based on a three-year reference period to be defined upon entry into force of this Regulation, only to be reviewed when this Regulation is changed. National policy frameworks as set out in Article 13 of this Regulation should define the reference period considered, which determines the scope of shore side electricity requirements in ports. The reference period should be decided in such a way that it leaves sufficient time for the deployment of the shore side electricity infrastructure necessary to meet the requirements set out in Article 9(1). The terminals in ports falling within the scope cannot be challenged every year in function of changing number of port calls. Once a terminal falls in the scope of Article 9(1), it should therefore remain in the scope.

(40) In order to promote alternative fuels and develop the relevant infrastructure, the national policy frameworks should consist of detailed strategies to promote alternative fuels in sectors that are difficult to decarbonise such as aviation, maritime transport, inland waterway transport as well as rail transport on network segments that cannot be electrified. In particular, Member States should develop clear strategies for the decarbonisation of inland waterway transport along the TEN- T network in close cooperation with those Member States concerned. Long term decarbonisation strategies should also be developed for TEN-T ports and TEN-T airports, in particular with a focus on the deployment of infrastructure for low and zero emission vessels and aircraft as well as for railway lines that are not going to be electrified. On the basis of those strategies the Commission should review this Regulation with a view to setting more mandatory targets for those sectorMember States should be free to decide how to reach their national reduction targets.

This should likely affect the demand for alternative fuels and consequently for alternative fuels infrastructure across the modes. The Commission should therefore prepare two years after the entry into force of this regulation a technology-rediness report, analysing the market readiness and availability of key zero- and low-emission powertrains and fuel technologies and their dedicated infrastructure. Based on this report, the Commission should review this Regulation by the end of 2026 in particular as regards the targets setting for electric recharging points for HDV as well as targets for infrastructure for alternative fuels for zero-emission vessels and aircraft in waterborne transport and aviation.

Amendment 106 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 1

(1) Directive 2014/94/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council43 laid down a framework for the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure. The Commission Communication on the application of that Directive44 points to the uneven development of recharging and refuelling infrastructure both across the Union and ~~the lack of~~within Member States, and to its being neither interoperab~~ility and~~le nor user -friendl~~iness. It notes that the absence of a~~y. It also notes that, since there is no clear common methodology for setting targets and adopting measures ~~under~~through the National Policy Frameworks required by Directive 2014/94/EU ~~has led to~~, a situation ~~whereby~~has been reached in which the level of ambition in relation to the targets set~~ting~~ and support~~ing~~ policies varies greatly among Member States and among EU regions. It is important that no EU region or territory is left behind and that regional disparities in the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure are properly addressed. _________________ 43 Directive 2014/94/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 October 2014 on the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure (OJ L 307, 28.10.2014, p. 1). 44 COM(2020) 789 final.

Amendment 107 #

(2) Various instruments of Union law already set targets for renewable fuels. Directive 2018/2001/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council45 for instance set a market share target of 14 % of renewables in transport fuels, including a target of 3,5% for advanced biofuels. _________________ 45 Directive (EU) 2018/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2018 on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources (OJ L 328, 21.12.2018, p. 82).

Amendment 108 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 4

(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. 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. Moreover the infrastructure for renewable fuels bunkering of ships should gain special attention throughout the ports of Europe to fast track the decarbonisation of ships. The heavy-duty vehicle renewable fuels infrastructure should focus on available renewable fuel technology and increase the level of ambition in the (bio-) LNG infrastructure throughout Europe to allow fast decarbonisation of heavy-duty vehicles, whilst new technology for these vehicles can be further developed. _________________ 48 COM(2021) 561. 49 COM(2021) 562.

Amendment 110 #

Proposal for a regulation
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 development of their market share and particularly their affordability. The use of zero-emission powertrain technologies and alternative fuels is at different stages of maturity in the different modes of transport and in different Member States and regions. In particular, in the road sector, a rapid uptake of battery-electric and plug-in hybrid passenger cars and light commercial vehicles is taking place. 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 , as well as heavy-duty road transport 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. 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, requiring increasing blending with or replacement by renewable fuels such as ~~bio-methane, advanced biofuels~~gaseous or liquid bio-methane, biomass fuels, biofuels, advanced biofuels, recycled carbonfuels, renewable fuels of non-biological origin or renewable and low- carbon synthetic gaseous and liquid fuels.

(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. 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 and should be phased-out, 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. 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 by 2050 at the latest, 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.

Amendment 113 #

(5 a) Therefore, the general principle of technological neutrality should be maintained and market competition between the different alternative technologies should be promoted and protected on Union and national levels, thus providing for the best technological solutions and affordable prices. Targets and milestones should be set on Union and national levels, depending on the market development of different technologies, while taking into account the different starting points of Member States and EU regions.

(7) The sustained use of liquefied natural gas (LNG) is ~~likely to play a continued~~not compatible with the Union's climate neutrality objective. Therefore LNG in maritime transport should be phased out as soon as possible and substituted by more sustainable alternatives. However, in the short term, LNG is likely to play a transitional role in maritime transport, where there is currently no economically viable zero- emission powertrain technology available. The Communication on the Smart and Sustainable Mobility Strategy points to zero-emission seagoing ships becoming market ready by 2030. Fleet conversion should take place gradually due to the long lifetime of the ships. Contrary to maritime transport, for inland waterways, with normally smaller vessels and shorter distances, zero-emission powertrain technologies, such as hydrogen and electricity, should enter the markets more quickly. LNG is expected to no longer play a significant role in that sector. Transport fuels such as LNG need increasingly to be decarbonised by blending/substituting with liquefied biomethane (bio-LNG) or renewable and low-carbon synthetic gaseous e-fuels (e-gas) for instance. Those decarbonised fuels can be used in the same infrastructure as gaseous fossil fuels thereby allowing for a gradual shift towards decarbonised fuels.

A recharging or refuelling point located on a private property that is accessible to the general public should be considered as publicly accessible also in cases where access is restricted to a certain general group of users, for example to clients. Recharging or refuelling points for car-sharing schemes should only be considered accessible to the public if they explicitly allow access for third party users. Recharging or refuelling points located on private properties, access to which is restricted to a limited, determinate circle of persons, such as parking lots in office buildings to which only employees or authorised persons have access, as well as recharging and refuelling stations dedicated to public transport fleets, should not be considered as publicly accessible recharging or refuelling points.

As outlined in the Commission’s communication ‘A hydrogen strategy for a climate-neutral Europe’56 the heavy-duty segment was identified as the most likely segment for the early mass deployment of hydrogen vehicles. Therefore, hydrogen refuelling infrastructure should preliminarily focus on that segment while also allowing light-duty vehicles to fuel at publicly accessible hydrogen refuelling stations. To ensure interoperability, all publicly accessible hydrogen stations should at least serve gaseous hydrogen at 700 bar. The infrastructure roll out should also take into account the emergence of new technologies, such as liquid hydrogen~~, that allow a larger range for heavy-duty vehicles and are the preferred technology choice of some vehicle manufacturers~~. To that end, a minimum number of hydrogen refuelling stations should serve also liquid hydrogen in addition to gaseous hydrogen at 700 bar. _________________ 56 COM(2020) 301 final

Similarly, the mandatory targets should not aim to target maximum demand, but a sufficiently high volume, in order to avoid underused capacity and to take account of port operational characteristics. Maritime transport is an important link for the cohesion and economic development of islands in the Union. Energy production capacity in these islands may not always be sufficient to account for the power demand required to support the provision of shore- side electricity supply. In such a case islands should be exempted from this requirement unless and until such ansufficient electrical supply connection with the mainland has been completed or there is a sufficient locally generated capacity from clean energy sources.

(41) Member States should make use of a wide range of regulatory and non- regulatory incentives and measures to reach the mandatory targets and implement their national policy frameworks, in close cooperation with regional local authorities and private sector actors, who should both play a key role in supporting the development of alternative fuels infrastructure.

Amendment 157 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 41 a (new)

(41 a) With at least 30% of the European Regional Development Fund and 37% of the Cohesion Fund to be spent on climate protection, cohesion policy will play a central role in the deployment of a dense, smart and accessible alternative fuels’ infrastructure across the EU. In particular, regional and local authorities are often pivotal in both financing, including by using ESI Funds, and delivering permits for the construction of the infrastructures needed for the development of the alternative fuels’ market. Therefore, regional and local authorities should be fully involved in the elaboration and implementation of the national policy frameworks for the deployment of the alternative fuels’ infrastructure. Besides, when using ESI funds to deploy such an infrastructure, neighbouring Member states and regions should pay a particular attention on cross-border areas, so that no territories are left behind in terms of availability of alternative fuels, as well as on its public accessibility.

Amendment 158 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 42

(42) Pursuant to Directive 2009/33/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council58, minimum national shares of public procurement are reserved for clean and zero-emission buses, where a clean bus uses alternative fuels as defined in Article 2, point (3) of this Regulation. With ever more public transport authorities and operators switching to clean and zero- emission buses in order to reach those targets, Member States should include the targeted promotion and development of the necessary bus infrastructure as a key element in their National Policy Frameworks, so as to ensure smart and sustainable urban mobility. Member States should ~~establish~~introduce and maintain appropriate instruments to promote the deployment of charging and refuelling infrastructure also for captive fleets, in particular for clean and zero-emission buses at local level, and of rapid charging and the possibility of overnight charging for all public transport service operators. _________________ 58 Directive 2009/33/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2009 on the promotion of clean and energy-efficient road transport vehicles (OJ L 120, 15.5.2009, p. 5).

Amendment 163 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 54 a (new)

(54 a) Given that this Regulation will generate additional compliance costs for affected sectors, compensatory actions need to be taken in order to prevent the total level of regulatory burdens from increasing. The Commission should therefore be obliged to present, before the entry into force of this Regulation, proposals offsetting the regulatory burdens introduced by this Regulation, through the revision or removal of provisions in other EU Regulations that generate compliance costs in the affected sectors.

Amendment 164 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 54 a (new)

(54 a) Considering the significant share of final energy consumption by road transport, the energy efficiency first principle should be reflected in planning and investment decisions related to the deployment of recharging and refuelling infrastructure of alternative fuels in the EU, as set out in Regulation (EU) 2018/1999.

Amendment 165 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 55

(55) Since the objective of this Regulation, namely to promote a broad market development of alternative fuels, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States individually, but can rather, by reason of the need for action to meet the demand for a critical mass of alternative fuel vehicles and for cost- efficient developments by European industry, and to allow Union-wide mobility of alternative fuel vehicles, 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 Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective.deleted

Amendment 132 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital -1 (new)

(-1) It is unfortunate that to date the Commission has failed to produce a comprehensive overall impact assessment for the entire "Fit for 55"-package, elaborating on its cumulative and combined effects. This is problematic since the overall impact of the package on social costs and their distribution, competitiveness, jobs, carbon and business leakage remains unclear. The absence of this overall assessment equally impedes a clear view of synergies and interdependencies between the various proposals of the "Fit for 55"-package. Moreover, the "Fit for 55"-package should also be aligned with more recent climate proposals.

Amendment 133 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 1

(1) The roll out of alternative fuels infrastructure is a key enabler for the shift towards a zero-emission, highly energy efficient and fully renewable- energy based transport system in Europe, in line with the Union's climate neutrality objective and the Paris 1.5°C goal. Such roll out should be rapid, as the IPCC 1.5°C report1a warns that emissions must be reduced significantly this decade and that, if action is insufficient now, it will likely be impossible to make up for the deficit later. The deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure also plays a role in the achievement of the Union's Zero Pollution ambition; today, combustion engine vehicles are responsible for more than two thirds of all NOx emissions and account for a significant proportion of the total emissions of other pollutants in Europe. Directive 2014/94/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council43 laid down a framework for the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure. The Commission Communication on the application of that Directive44 points to the uneven development of recharging and refuelling infrastructure across the Union and the lack of interoperability and user friendliness. It notes that the absence of a clear common methodology for setting targets and adopting measures under the National Policy Frameworks required by Directive 2014/94/EU has led to a situation whereby the level of ambition in target setting and supporting policies varies greatly among Member States. _________________ 1a IPCC, 2018: Global Warming of 1.5°C.

(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 State should assess the current state and future development of the hydrogen market for aviation and should provide for 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. Furthermore, the Energy Taxation Directive1a recast should incentivise the use of on shore power. Therefore, alignment between this Directive and the current Regulation is necessary in order to ensure a coherent framework for the use and deployment of alternative fuels. _________________ 1a COM(2021) 563 48 COM(2021) 561. 49 COM(2021) 562.

(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. 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. 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, 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. Taking into account the above-mentioned differences between technologies and transport modes as well as the current uneven deployment of electric recharging points and hydrogen refuelling stations throughout the EU territory this Regulation should provide for minimum standards with regard to the binding targets that would enable Member States to define their national targets with greater flexibility and according to their actual needs.

The Communication on the Smart and Sustainable Mobility Strategy points to zero-emission seagoing ships becoming market ready by 2030. Fleet conversion should take place gradually due to the long lifetime of the ships. Given the transitional role of LNG, the availability of LNG bunkering infrastructure in ports should be demand driven, in particular as regards new public investments. Therefore, current LNG deployment should be sufficient to respond to market demand, and additional public funded for LNG infrastructure should not be required. Contrary to maritime transport, for inland waterways, with normally smaller vessels and shorter distances, zero- emission powertrain technologies, such as green hydrogen and electricity, should enter the markets more quickly.

Transport fuels such as LNG need increasingly to be decarbonised by blending/substituting with liquefied biomethane (bio-LNG) or renewable and low-carbon synthetic gaseous e-fuels (e- gas) for instance.

Contrary to maritime transport, for inland waterways, with normally smaller vessels and shorter distances, zero-emission powertrain technologies, such as hydrogen and electricity, should enter the markets more quickly. LNG is expected to no longer play a significant role in that sector. Transport fuels such as LNG need increasingly to be decarbonised by blending/substituting with liquefied biomethane (bio-LNG) or renewable and low-carbon synthetic gaseous e-fuels (e-gas) for instance. Those decarbonised fuels can be used in the same infrastructure as gaseous fossil fuels thereby allowing for a gradual shift towards decarbonised fuels.

On the one hand, the common scenar~~major economic actors are rapidly moving towards efficient zero emission solutions underpinning the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy and the Climate Target Plan as well as the revised “Fit for 55” modelling scenarios suggest some limited role of gaseous fuels that will increasingly be decarbonised in heavy-duty road transport especially in the long haul segmentlike electric trucks. Research also shows that fossil LNG powered trucks will actually lead to an increase in greenhouse gas emissions and it is not expected that bio-gaseous nor synthetic gaseous fuels produced from renewable electricity will be sufficiently scalable or affordable for the trucking sector. It is also the case that continuing the investment in LNG trucks and refuelling infrastructure carries a high risk of stranded assets and would create a fossil fuel lock-in due to the lack of renewable alternatives. Furthermore, LPG and CNG vehicles for which already a sufficient infrastructure network exists across the Union are expected to gradually be replaced by zero emission drivetrains and therefore ~~only a limited targeted policy for LNG infrastructure deployment that can equally supply decarbonised fuels is considered necess~~no further targets are required nor are appropriate with regaryd to ~~close remaining gaps in the main networks~~LPG, CNG and LNG refuelling infrastructure.

By providing energy metering in real time and accurate and transparent information on the cost and the renewable share, they encourage, in combination with smart and bi-directional recharging points, recharging at times of low general electricity demand and low energy prices. The use of smart metering systems in combination with smart recharging points can optimise recharging, with benefits for the electricity system and for the end user. Member States should encourage the use of smart metering system for the recharging of electric vehicles at publicly accessible recharging stations, where technically feasible and economically reasonable, and ensure that these systems comply with the requirements laid down in Article 20 of Directive (EU) 2019/444. _________________ 52 Directive (EU) 2019/944 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 June 2019 on common rules for the internal market for electricity and amending Directive 2012/27/EU (OJ L 158, 14.6.2019, p. 125).

(21) The increasing number of electric vehicles in road, rail, maritime and other transport modes will require that recharging operations are optimised and managed in a way that does not cause congestion and takes full advantage of the availability of renewable electricity and low electricity prices in the system. Smart recharging points as well as off-grid recharging points, in particular, can facilitate the integration of electric vehicles into the electricity system ~~further~~and reduce the impact of electric vehicles on the electricity distribution network, as it enables demand response through aggregation and through price based demand response. System integration can further be facilitated through bi-directional recharging (vehicle-to-grid). All normal recharging points at which vehicles are typically parked for a longer period should therefore support smart recharging.

(21 b) The climate mitigation benefits of zero-emission vehicles are maximised when the electricity and fuel used by such vehicles are produced from renewable energy. While Directive 2018/2001/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council accelerates the roll-out of renewable energies, this Regulation directly creates demand for such energies in the transport sector and indirectly creates demand for renewable electricity also by increasing consumer awareness through the requirement for charge point operators to disclose the renewable energy content of the supplied electricity on the basis of their contract with an electricity provider.

(22) The development of on-grid and off-grid infrastructure for electric vehicles, the interaction of that infrastructure with the electricity system, and the rights and responsibilities assigned to the different actors in the electric mobility market, have to be consistent with the principles established under Directive (EU) 2019/944. In that sense, distribution system operators should cooperate on a non-discriminatory basis with any person establishing or operating publicly accessible recharging points and Member States should ensure that the electricity supply for a recharging point can be the subject of a contract with a supplier other than the entity supplying electricity to the household or premises where this recharging point is located. The access of Union electricity suppliers to recharging points should be without prejudice to the derogations under Article 66 of Directive (EU) 2019/944.

(23) The establishment and operation of recharging points for electric vehicles should be developed as a competitive market with open access to all parties interested in rolling-out or operating recharging infrastructures. Therefore, Member States should prevent the emergence of dominant operators of charging infrastructure during the infrastructure development phase. Regional and local authorities support this objective by designating areas for competing operators. In view of the limited alternative locations for charging operators on highways, existing highway concessions such as for conventional refuelling stations or rest areas are a particular cause for concern, since they can run over very long periods and sometimes even lack a specified end date altogether. Member States should seek, to the extent possible and in compliance with Directive (EU) 2014/23 of the European Parliament and of the Council53 , to competitively award new concessions specifically for recharging stations on or adjacent to existing highway rest areas in order to limit deployment cost and enable new market entrants. ~~_________________ 53 Directive 2014/23/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February 2014 on the award of concession contracts (OJ L 94, 28.3.2014, p. 1)~~The possibility of setting up recharging points of competing operators at a highway rest area can also be considered.

(23 a) There is a wide range of funding sources available for Member States to support the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure, in particular the Recovery and Resilience Facility established by Regulation (EU) 2021/24113a, the Commission’s Technical Support Instrument established by Regulation (EU) 2021/24013b, the Connecting Europe Facility established by Regulation (EU) 2021/115313c, the 'Alternative Fuels Facility' (AFF) established by Regulation 2022/xxx13dand Horizon Europe partnerships and missions, in particular the proposed Mission on Climate Neutral and Smart Cities, which aims to make 100 cities climate neutral by 2030. In addition, the European Regional Development Fund and the Cohesion Fund established by Regulation (EU) 2021/105813e are available to support investment in research, innovation and deployment, in particular in the less developed Member States and regions and the Invest EU programme, through its Sustainable Infrastructure window, can bolster future- proof investment across the European Union, help mobilise private investment and provide advisory services to project promoters and operators working in sustainable infrastructure and mobile assets. In recent years, the EIB Group has also ramped up its support to accelerate newer technologies such as e-mobility and digitalisation under the Cleaner Transport Facility, and the EIB is expected to continue providing a range of financing structures to help accelerate the deployment. Member States should tap into these financing possibilities, in particular to support public transport and active transport solutions and to finance measures designed to support citizens in energy and mobility poverty. _________________ 13a Regulation (EU) 2021/241 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 February 2021 establishing the Recovery and Resilience Facility 13b Regulation (EU) 2021/240 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 10 February 2021 establishing a Technical Support Instrument 13c Regulation (EU) 2021/1153 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 July 2021 establishing the Connecting Europe Facility and repealing Regulations (EU) No 1316/2013 and (EU) No 283/2014 13d Regulation (EU) 2021/....on the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure, and repealing Directive 2014/94/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council 13e Regulation (EU) 2021/1058 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 June 2021 on the European Regional Development Fund and on the Cohesion Fund.

(24) Price transparency isand stability are crucial to ensure seamless and easy recharging and refuelling. Users of alternative fuel vehicles should be able to rely on a price regulation mechanism for such alternative fuels which guarantees that they are permanently affordable, even in times of crisis, and also enables them to maintain mobility at the lowest cost. In addition, these users should be given accurate price information before the start of the recharging or refuelling service.

This will require coordination amongst all stakeholders, including by European, national, and regional institutions, trade unions, the industry and the logistics industry. Initiatives, such as the Clean Hydrogen Joint Undertaking, set up by Council Regulation (EU) 2021/2085, should also be used with a view to facilitating and leveraging private funding so that it reaches the relevant targets identified in this Regulation. In addition, Member States must have equal access to funding when implementing alternative fuels infrastructure in areas where it is not available on market terms.

Amendment 261 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 28 a (new)

(28 a) Considering the need to improve Europe’s energy security and the need to shift away from fossil fuels, including those that are gaseous and liquid for climate mitigation purposes, it is essential that EU legislation avoids creating any further policy incentives related to the development of transport infrastructure that would allow for an increased use of fossil fuels. Such incentives would provide Union support to those countries developing fossil fuels and would in turn directly weaken the international standing of the European Union in being able to manage geo-political developments including where military conflict has the potential to take place or is in progress.

(31) Transport infrastructure should allow seamless mobility and accessibility for all users, including persons with disabilities ~~and older person~~, older persons and persons living in outermost regions or in remote or rural areas. In principle, the location of all recharging and refuelling stations as well as the recharging and refuelling stations themselves should be designed in such a way that they can be used by as much of the public as possible, in particular by older persons, persons with reduced mobility and persons with disabilities. This should include for example providing sufficient space around the parking lot, ensuring that the recharging station is not installed on a kerbed surface, ensuring that the buttons or screen of the recharging station are at an appropriate height and the weight of the recharging and refuelling cables is such that persons with limited strength can handle them with ease. In addition the user interface of the related recharging stations should be accessible. In that sense, the accessibility requirements in Annexes I and III to Directive 2019/88257 should be applicable to recharging and refuelling infrastructure. As appropriate, the specific case of outermost regions should also be taken into account in the setting up of recharging and refuelling stations, ensuring that the development of an alternative fuels infrastructure does not run in different speeds throughout the Union. _________________ 57 Directive (EU) 2019/882 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 on the accessibility requirements for products and services (OJ L 151, 7.6.2019, p. 70).

(32) Shore-side electricity facilities can serve maritime and inland waterway transport as clean power supply and contribute to reducing the environmental impact of seagoing ships and inland waterway vessels, mainly at berth in ports. The public health and climatological benefits of using onshore-power supply (OPS) over other options that use generators on board of vessels (running mostly on fossil fuels) are prominent in terms of air quality for urban areas surrounding ports. Under the FuelEU maritime initiative, ship operators of container and passenger ships need to comply with provisions to reduce emissions at berth. Mandatory deployment targets should ensure that the sector finds sufficient shore-side electricity supply in TEN-T core and comprehensive maritime ports to comply with those requirements. The application of these targets to all TEN- T maritime ports should ensure the level playing field between ports. In addition, a binding mandate needs to be in place that ensures that: if OPS infrastructure is available, it is used.

Recital 32 a (new)

(32 a) The landscape of European ports is heterogeneous, with many different elements: sizes, recreational, logistical and industrial activities, traffic segments and trade routes, governance, etc. This diversity can result in different type of demands of on-shore power supply (OPS) infrastructure. It is important that ports exchange best practices on how to tackle this and build cooperating networks to strengthen their transition towards climate neutrality. In addition, it needs to be recognised that different responsibilities between the ports, local/regional/national authorities and other actors (for example electricity net operators) exist when it comes to the effective deployment of OPS infrastructure. It would be best to deploy the OPS infrastructure within a port where it will be most effective and efficient in terms of capacity, usage cases and occupancy rate following the principles of good asset management to ensure a maximum return on investment as well as environmental benefit (GHG emissions & pollutant reductions at berth).

Amendment 286 #

Amendment 314 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 34 a (new)

(34 a) The increase in shore-side electricity (SSE) as planned by this Regulation will require increased energy supply from the national grid to ports. To ensure power demand is met, Member States should provide the required energy production and supply for ports, which could require further project development on the grid (i.e. subsea transmission lines, frequency converters). Peak demand for SSE could coincide with peak demand from other sectors of the economy leading to excess demand which cannot be met by local energy production capacity. Specifically, such scenarios can occur on islands where energy production capacity is limited by geographical contraints. Where failures to temporarily supply SSE to vessels are caused by shortages of grid capacity, such events should not be considered a failure by the port or the responsible autority to supply SSE.

Recital 34 a (new)

(34 a) Member States should ensure adequate energy production and provision of sufficient grid infrastructure (as well in terms of availability and capacity) to meet the power demands resulting from the provision of shore-side electricity in ports as required in this Regulation.

Amendment 316 #

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 34 e (new)

(34 e) To comply with the requirements of this Regulation, investments in grid converter sand the upgrade of the grid, which entails additional costs and complexity, should be considered. Europe’s grids operate at 50 Hz, whereas many vessel segments such as ocean- going ships require 60Hz when connecting to shore-side electricity. In order to meet these demands, investments in frequency converters are required.

(35) A core network of refuelling points for LNG at maritime ports should be available by 2025. Refuelling points for LNG include LNG terminals, tanks, mobile containers, bunker vessels and barges. An energy refuelling infrastructure such as this is exposed to risks of leakage, explosion or fire, and is therefore also a target for malicious acts or terrorism; protocols and safety and response arrangements should therefore be laid down to ensure the safety of workers and residents around port areas in the event of an incident.

(35 a) In order to ensure that investments in new fuels and technology for the maritime sector lead to an efficient balancing of supply and demand and avoid stranded assets, a consultation mechanisms between all relevant stakeholders in the sector should be established. Member States, ports, and shipping companies, among others, must consult in the interest of the cost-efficient implementation of the requirements present in this Regulation for shore-side electricity (SSE) and LNG infrastructure deployment.

Amendment 332 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 35 a (new)

(35 a) The development and deployment of new fuels and energy solutions for the maritime sector requires a coordinated approach to match supply and demand and avoid stranded assets. A consultation mechanism between all relevant stakeholders at the level of individual ports should therefore be developed to ensure coordination and consultation in the application of the requirements foreseen in this Regulation as concerns shore-side electricity (SSE) and LNG.

Amendment 333 #

Proposal for a regulation

(35 a) The development and deployment of renewable and low-carbon maritime fuels and broader energy solutions for the maritime sector will require time, research and significant financing. Therefore, it is premature to already set ammonia and hydrogen infrastructure requirements in ports. Stresses in this regard the importance of dialogue with all actors in the value chain in order to better understand the needs and possibilities.

Amendment 334 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 35 a (new)

(35a) The construction of shore-side electricity facilities in maritime and inland waterway ports must be accompanied by an increase in the capacity and connectivity of the onshore electricity networks to which these facilities are connected and, in some cases, by investments in frequency converters, in order to adapt the frequency of the networks to that of certain vessels.

Amendment 336 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 35 b (new)

(35b) Shore-side electricity demand in ports is likely to experience peaks during certain periods, which may coincide with peaks in demand in other sectors of the economy, potentially leading to aggregate demand that exceeds electricity generation capacity. Such situations should not be regarded as a failure on the part of the port to fulfil its obligation to provide shore-side electricity.

(36) Electricity supply to stationary aircraft at airports should replace the consumption of liquid fuel with a cleaner power source by aircraft (use of Auxiliary Power Unit) or ground power units (GPUs). Aditionally, in order for commercial passenger aircraft to completely turn off their engines while parked, pre-conditioned air (PCA) systems should be taken into account. This should reduce pollutant and noise emissions, improve air quality and reduce the impact on climate change. Therefore, all commercial transport operation should be able to make use of external electricity supply and pre-conditioned air systems while parked at gates or at outfield positions at TEN-T airports.

Amendment 340 #

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 36 a (new)

(36 a) The development and deployment of alternative marine fuels and energy solutions for the maritime sector will require time and significant financing. While fuels such as ammonia and hydrogen can play a role in the future energy mix for shipping, the safety and infrastructure requirements still have to be studied and agreed upon. To accelerate this, pilot projects and research and development for these fuels should be promoted and provided funding. The European Commission and the 4th IMO Greenhouse Gas Study[1a] finds that less than 1% of vessels will use fuels such as ammonia and hydrogen by 2030. Accordingly, it is premature to set requirements for ammonia and hydrogen infrastructure in ports. Potential requirements to deploy alternative marine fuels that are currently underdevelopment such as ammonia and hydrogen should therefore be considered first during the review of this Regulation in 2026. Any such requirements must be coupled by strict requirements to use such alternative marine fuels in Article5 of Regulation XXXX-XXX (FuelEU Maritime). [1a] 4th IMO GHG Study, 2020, p. 231.

Both the assessment of the national policy framework and the evaluation of Directive 2014/94/EU have highlighted the need for higher ambition and a better coordinated approach across Member States in view of the expected acceleration in the uptake of alternative fuel vehicles, in particular of electric vehicles. Furthermore, alternatives to fossil fuel will be needed in all transport modes to meet the ambitions of the European Green Deal. The existing National Policy Frameworks should be revised to clearly describe how the much greater need for publicly accessible recharging and refuelling infrastructure as expressed in the mandatory targets is going to be met by the Member States. The national policy frameworks should be based on territorial analysis, identifying the different needs and taking into account, when relevant, existing local and regional deployment plans of refuelling and recharging infrastructure. Particular attention should be paid to rural areas in order to ensure their closest accessibility to these refuelling and recharging infrastructures based on an ex-ante evaluation of their corresponding needs focused on i.e. users' demand, socioeconomic local activities, mobility basic needs... Furthermore, the revised frameworks should equally address all transport modes including those for which no mandatory deployment targets exists, of particular importance for rural areas too.

(40 a) Only 54% of the existing European rail network is electrified and there is an estimated 6,000 diesel trains in service today that in turn are responsible for significant greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. The further deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure in the rail sector to ensure a shift away from fossil fuel powered trains is therefore necessary and urgent to ensure that all transport sectors play their role in shifting towards a climate neutral economy and hence why mandatory targets are proposed under this Regulation. Different technologies are available to the rail sector to shift away from diesel trains including direct electrification, battery powered trains and renewable hydrogen applications. Considering the expected strong demand for hydrogen to support the decarbonisation of hard-to-abate sectors, it is important therefore that electric based technologies are prioritised in the rail sector due in part to the relatively easier application compared to other hard-to-abate sectors but also considering the lack of supply of renewable hydrogen. The ‘energy efficiency first’ principle should in turn be fully taken into account in planning and investment decisions.

(41a) While the introduction of mandatory targets for Member States is motivated by the need to encourage the creation of an interoperable network of recharging and refuelling infrastructure ensuring a fair geographical distribution and covering the entire territory of the EU, the development of a recharging and refuelling infrastructure market should mainly result from private investment. National regulatory and financial incentives are intended to have a knock- on effect and stimulate the supply of infrastructure in cases where market conditions require public support, especially in sparsely populated areas or areas with low traffic density and in the islands and outermost regions. However, investment decisions by private actors remain motivated by the existence of tangible prospects of profitability, supported by sufficient demand to fuel a competitive market, as well as by clear decarbonisation pathways.

This data can then be used by third parties, including aggregators and demand response providers, as well as for consumer comparison, booking and information services on recharging stations, notably their location, ad hoc price, availability and other parameters that are useful for consumers, with full regard to data protection requirements. Requirements on data types regarding availability of and accessibility to relevant recharging and refuelling-related data should be laid down, building on the outcomes of the Programme Support Action on “Data collection related to recharging/refuelling points for alternative fuels and the unique identification codes related to e-mobility actors” (‘IDACS’).

Recital 46

(46) Data should play a fundamental role in the adequate functioning of recharging and refuelling infrastructure. The format, the frequency and the quality in which these data should be made available and accessible should determine the overall quality of an alternative fuels infrastructure ecosystem that meets user needs. Moreover, those data should be accessible in a coherent manner in all Member States. Therefore, data should be provided in accordance with the requirements set in Directive 2010/40/EU of the European Parliament and the Council59 for national access points (NAPs). The Commission should establish a European access point which connects all NAPs and which is publicly accessible for users to easily access relevant information on the refuelling and recharging points at any time. The development of a public interface at EU level is needed to access this data and give users information on the accessibility and availability, including waiting times and the remaining alternative fuels capacity of the refuelling and recharging points. This could help preventing traffic disruption and benefit road safety. The interface should also provide users with a standardised and secure booking and payment systems. The form of this interface should be standardised, multilingual and user-friendly. _________________ 59 Directive 2010/40/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 July 2010 on the framework for the deployment of Intelligent Transport Systems in the field of road transport and for interfaces with other modes of transport (OJ L 207, 6.8.2010, p. 1).

(53) Alternative fuels infrastructure is a fast developing area. The lack of common technical specification constitutes a barrier for the creation of a single market of alternative fuels infrastructure. Therefore, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 TFEU should be delegated to the Commission to norm technical specifications for areas where common technical specifications are outstanding but necessary. In particular, this should include the communication between the electric vehicle and the recharging point, the communication between the recharging point and the recharging software management system (back-end); the communication related to the electric vehicle roaming service and the communication with the electricity grid, while ensuring the highest level of cybersecurity protection and protection of final customers´ personal data. It is also necessary to define the suitable governance framework and roles of the different actors involved in the vehicle-to- grid communication ecosystem. Moreover, emerging technological developments, such as electric road systems (‘ERS’) have to be accounted for. As concerns data provision, it is necessary to provide for additional data types and technical specifications related to the format, the frequency and the quality in which these data should be made available and accessible.
