1 Alternative Fuels Development Policy drivers Alternative fuels options Alternative fuels infrastructure Fuels cost Slide 1

2 Policy Drivers for Alternative Fuels High demand on finite energy sources (Range of conventional oil: ~ 45 years) Increasing energy import dependence (Import dependence for oil: 80% now; ~ 90% in 2030) Increasing greenhouse gas emissions (Increase of transport CO 2 emissions: 25% since 1990) Remaining air quality problems in cities (70% of pollutant emissions in urban areas) Slide 2

3 Alternative Fuels Strategy Comprehensive long-term fuel strategy All transport modes, all segments to be covered White Paper on Transport - Initiative 24 - Technology roadmap: Sustainable alternative fuels strategy including also the appropriate infrastructure White Paper on Transport - Initiative 26 - Regulatory framework: Appropriate standards for CO 2 emissions of vehicles in all modes, where necessary supplemented by requirements on energy efficiency to address all types of propulsion systems Rules on interoperability of charging infrastructure for clean vehicles Guidelines and standards for refuelling infrastructures Slide 3

7 Alternative Transport Fuel Options Main fuel options: Electricity / hydrogen electromobility Biofuels (liquid) Bridge from fossil to biomass based fuels: Synthetic fuels (from coal, methane, biomass) Complementary: Methane (natural gas and biomethane) Supplement: LPG (now: from oil, natural gas; future: from biomass) Slide 7

8 Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Future Transport Fuels Expert Group Conclusions Build up infrastructure for electricity, hydrogen, methane Establish EU-wide minimum coverage of infrastructure Implement harmonised standards Develop EU infrastructure roll-out plan Link up the markets through public intervention Provide EU-regulatory framework Consider binding targets on infrastructure Align policy, funding, taxation Link alternative fuel infrastructure to TEN-T Open innovative funding schemes Slide 8
