Clean Mobility – present and future EU transport policy developments

1. Clean Mobility– present and future EU transport policydevelopments EUSEW Policy Conference 2019Session: Innovative Mobility Solutions shapingEurope’senergy future Axel Volkery Policy Coordinator Clean Transport Directorate-General Mobility and Transprot Unit B4 « Sustainable and Intelligent Transport » 18/06/2019

2. Long-term climate strategy proposal 2050 • EU leads in clean energy transition and GHG emissions reduction. Ambitious 2030 targets. Greater ambition needed for 2030-2050. • Transformations necessary: energy system, buildings, transport, industry, agriculture. • There are a number of pathways for achieving a climate neutral EU, challenging but feasible from a technological, economic, environmental and social perspective.

3. Clean, safe & connected mobility • Carbon-free power, cheaper and efficient batteries, highly efficient electric powertrains, connectivity and autonomous driving offers prospects to decarbonise road transport. • Digitalisation, data sharing and interoperable standards leading to a more efficient mobility system, supported by (cooperative) intelligent transport systems, infrastructure for modal shift and adequate road pricing • No single silver bullet for all transport modes with alternative fuels having a role in powertrain shift, part. in heavy duty or long distance transport modes (advanced biofuels, carbon-free e-fuels, hydrogen). • Need to develop alternative fuels for all modes in transport – current market offerings too limited • Innovative mobility for urban areas and smart cities– key areas of impact, key testbeds of change

7. Embrace clean, safe and connected & automated mobility A broad policy mix • Internalisation of externalities, incl. road pricing • Infrastructure to encourage modal shift to rail and inland navigation as well as multi-modality • Powertrain shift • Urban and Regional planning • Automation as a driver for lower (sharing) rather than higher (activity) emissions • Consumer and Business Choices • Public Procurement of fleets

9. CO2 emission targets for cars, vans & trucks Clean Vehicles Directive Renewable Energy Directive (& Battery Action Plan) Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Directive (& Action Plan) Energy Performance of Buildings Directive Intelligent Transport Systems Directive Combined Transport Directive Eurovignette Directive Urban Mobility Package • EU legislation & otherinitiatives supporting • sustainable & intelligent mobility

10. Clean Mobility Package:CO2 emission performance standards for cars and vans • Average new passenger car % vans emissions to be • 15% lower in 2025 (starting point: 95 g Co2/km and 147 g CO2/km respectively) and • to be 37.5% lower in 2030compared to 2021 for cars and 31% for vans • Based on WLTP = targets expressed as percentage reductions compared to the average of the specific emission targets for 2021 • Incentive mechanism for low- and zero-emission vehicles • New governance – market surveillance mechanisms

11. 4 Largest lorry categories accounting 65-70% of total HDV emissions • All lorries, coaches and buses will enter in the scope in 2022 • Relative, not absolute figure: % reduction compared to 2019 • Tailpipe based approach • Mandatory target for 2025: -15% • Mandatory target for 2030: at least -30% Clean Mobility package:CO2standards for heavy duty trucks

12. Clean Mobility package:Clean Vehicles Directive • extension of scope to vehicles rented, leased, hire purchased and to wider set of service contracts • Introduction of a definition based on tail-pipe emission-thresholds for light-duty vehicles • Requirements for heavy duty vehicles are based onalternative fuels (electricity, hydrogen, CNG, LNG) • Minimum procurement targets at Member State level for two reference periods for the aggregate of all new contracts under the provisions of the Directive, differentiated by Member State • Review clause for 2027 to extend beyond 2030.

13. Sector integration Renewable Energies Directive • Obligation of fuel suppliers achieving 14% target • Indicative trajectory • Scope: biofuels, res electricity, RFNBOs, recycled carbon fuels • Contribution of conventional biofuels optional and limited Energy efficiency performance of Buildings Directive • supports installation of recharging points in (non-residential) buildings with car parks over a certain size and of ducting infrastructure for car parks over a certain size • .

14. Review of Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Directive • By now, with some delays, almost all Member States have transposed Directive 2014/94/EU. • By 18 November 2019, Member States have to report on progress on the implementation of their National Policy Frameworks (NPFs). • Current assessment of NPFs shows shortcomings, part. past 2020 • An evaluation has started – hand in hand with the evaluation of the TEN-T guidelines • Key need: everybody can recharge/refuel everywhere in a seamless, easy manner in the EU • Need for an open market with interoperable services across borders

15. On the road to automated mobility: An EU strategy for mobility of the future 3 main axes: • Developing key technologies and infrastructures in the EU • Ensuring safe deployment of automated mobility and future-proof legal framework • Addressing societal concerns, in particular jobs and ethical issues • Two new actions proposed: • Single platform on CCAM/ Common and shared vision on testing and deployment of CCAM. Build on work done in ITS Committee and STRIA • Public Private Partnership under discussion

16. Snapshot of digitalisation initiatives across modes

17. Actions To Support Multimodality • The internalisation of external costs in all modes of transport (polluter pays). • Financial Support to multimodal infrastructure and innovation, in particular in the context of the Connecting Europe Facility, for better interconnections • Digitalisation: Better usage of information and data (eg traffic, capacity, availability, positioning, multimodal travel information and ticketing) • Direct support for intermodal transport with the Combined Transport Directive (92/106/EEC) • The promotion of 'active mobility' integrated with other modes in particular in an urban and smart cities context. • Working towards a legislative framework to protect passenger rights in multimodal journeys;
