On 24th January 2013, the European Commission proposed an ambitious set of measures, known as the “Clean Power for Transport package”, to solve the chicken-or-egg problem hampering the market uptake of clean (and in particular electric) vehicles in Europe.
The initiative aimed at ensuring the necessary build-up of alternative fuel stations across Europe with common standards for their design and use and included a proposal for a Directive on the deployment of alternative fuels recharging and refuelling infrastructure.
After extensive inter-institutional negotiations between the Commission, the Council and the European Parliament, the Directive was finally adopted on 29th September 2014. It requires Member States to develop national policy frameworks for the market development of clean vehicles, foresees the use of common technical specifications for recharging and refuelling stations and requests the setting up of consumer information on alternative fuels.
However, its initial level of ambition has been somewhat watered down in the course of the negotiations as one of its key elements, a mandatory minimum number of recharging points for each Member State, was scrapped in the final text.
The Directive is now to be transposed by Member States which must also provide their respective national policy frameworks to the Commission by 18 November 2016. In parallel, the Commission has launched a “Sustainable Transport Forum” (STF), gathering stakeholders and Member States to advance the application of the Clean Power for Transport strategy and facilitate the implementation of Directive 2014/94/EU.
This course will propose an outlook at the genesis of the Directive, its content and evolution compared to the original Commission proposal as well as the state of play as regards its implementation.
Finally, the course will also address the follow-up to the Directive as conducted by the Commission through the Sustainable Transport Forum and in the framework of other policies but also some related civil society initiatives such as the recently launched “Platform for Electro-Mobility”.
