Mobility andTransport

EU Transport Policy

DG MOVE


Transport is economically important both as:

i) individual sectorand

ii) a foundation for economic growth across sectors…

Impact of transport (1/3)



10 million workersdirectly employed, across the EU

Transport as an employer:



• All modes contributing to the flows of physical goods in and out of Europe

• No transport, no trade!


External Costs of Transport

• traffic congestion costs €100bn or 1% of

EU's GDP annually

• 1 billion tons CO2 of GHG emissions

(€100-150bn) every year

• 26.000 lives lost every year and 135.000

seriously injured

Accruing to approx. 4% of GDP


Decarbonisation



Challenges

• Transport and connectivity are essential for the EU economy.

• Transport is responsible for almost a quarter of EU GHGemissions and the main cause of reduced air quality in cities.

• Transport risks becoming the largest emitter of CO2 after2030.

• Action is needed to meet our commitment under the ParisAgreement and the 2030 goals. Transport emissions in 2050should be at least 60% lower than in 1990.


Evolution of GHG emissions by sector(1990 = 100), EU28


Developments of Emissions from Transport under current trends and policies

• Transport projected to become thelargest emitter of CO2 after 2030in case of non-action.

• Average passenger car emissionsdecrease in the medium term,driven by CO2 policies.

• Aviation and maritime (bunkerfuel) emissions projected to growsignificantly over time.

Low Emission Mobility Strategy (2016)

• Shift underway: new technologies and approaches provide theopportunity to make it irreversible.

• EU, Member States and cities already have a strong basis of low-emission policies.

• Three main pillars; integrated and systematic approach addressing allmodes of transport.

• Opportunity for industries and manufacturers to modernise, driveglobal standards and expand their markets.

• Opening new markets for innovative energy and service providers aswell as investors, contributing to sustainable growth and new jobs.

Dimensions of the Strategy


Action to accelerate clean vehicles and alternative fuels: Clean Mobility Package

•Adopted on 8 November 2017.

•Setting the right conditions and incentives for the industry to be globally competitive, as well as to generate innovation, growth and jobs.


The Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Directive 2014/94/EU

Electricity: publicly accessible recharging points to be built

by 2020 to allow the circulation of EVs Union-wide, both in urban and sub-urban areas, by 2025 on the TEN-T

Core Network

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG): publicly accessible Natural gas/bio-methane refuelling points for road vehicles and ships/vessels, with common

standards, on the TEN-T Core Network

Compressed Natural Gas (CNG): publicly accessible

refuelling points to allow the circulation of CNG vehicles Union-wide, both in urban and sub-urban areas, by

2020, as well as on the TEN-T Core Network, by 2025

Hydrogen: sufficient number of publicly accessible refuelling points, with

common standards, in the Member States who opt for

hydrogen infrastructure

Requires a minimum infrastructure to be implemented through national policy frameworks for:

Member States national policy frameworks have been assessed


Alternative fuels infrastructure

• National policy frameworks on alternative infrastructure –relatively low level of ambition

• Alternative Fuels AP – acceleration of the implementation of theDirective

• EU financial support for alternative fuels infrastructure - EUR

800 million mobilised from CEF Transport and NER300 for innovativefinancing of infrastructure projects (including new storage solutions)

• Estimated need for investment in alternative fuel infrastructure by 2025 is EUR 16-22 billion


• Cleaner public transport through clearer public procurement rules

• Setting minimum targets for clean vehicle procurement by 2025 and by 2030 at Member State level should contribute to policy certainty for markets operators and public authorities

• Maximum impact can be achieved if public procurement of clean vehicles is targeted in areas that have a relatively high degree of air pollution

Clean vehicles Directive


• Evolution in the markets necessitates the exploitation ofsynergies between energy and transport infrastructure

•With 1/3 of total energy demand, transport represents the largest share of final energy demand among all economic sectors.

•Decarbonising the transport sector, for example by means of transport electrification, will require an integrated approach.

•Electromobility but also energy storage, are important areas where we need to work across the historical sectoral boundaries
