Holistic Approach onSustainable Mobility
Improve vehicle performance to respond to main environmental challenges:
Improve energy efficiency contribute to security of energy supply
Reduce CO2 emissions
contribute to climate protection
Reduce pollutant emissions contribute to reduction of health impact
Slide 3

Achievements
Energy efficiencyReduction of fuel consumption of new cars by 15%:from 7.6 l/100 km (1995) to 6.4 l/100 km (2004)
CO2 emission reductionReduction of emissions of new cars by 12.4 %:from 186 g/km (1995) to 163 g/km (2004)
Pollutant emission reductionReduction through tightening of Euro emission standards:Particulate emissions:by factor 18 for heavy duty vehicles (Euro I/1993 to IV/2006)by factor 28 for cars (Euro 1/1993 to 5/2009)

Future Actions
Energy Efficiency Saving 20% energy consumption by 2020 Improving fuel efficiency of cars through CO2 reduction measures Revision of car labelling Directive Energy-efficient eco-driving education of drivers Tyre pressure standard and rolling resistance limits Research and technological development priority funding Promotion of the market development of clean and energy efficient
vehicles through public procurement
CO2 emission reduction Reducing CO2 emissions by 20% by 2020 (compared to 1990) Integrated approach on vehicles, fuels, policy, drivers
Pollutant emission reductionLower limits in new Euro standards (Euro VI proposal: 2007)
Slide 7
Europäische Kommission, Generaldirektion Energie und Verkehr
CEMR Working Group on Transport, Brussels, 5 June 2007
CO2 Strategy on Vehicles
Amendment of the fuels quality Directive(Commission proposal of 31 January 2007):
Reduction of average CO2 content of motor fuels in the EU by 1 % annually from 2010 to 2020
Review of Community strategy on CO2 from cars,Commission position on the integrated approach(Commission Communications of 7 February 2007):
Legislation with mandatory emission reductions;
Cars: 120g/km by 2012 (130 g/km by vehicle motor technology,10g/km by other technological improvements and biofuels);

Green Vehicle Procurement
R&D Community programmesprovided support to clean and energy efficient vehicle and fuel technologies
Market introductiondelayed or prevented by high initial cost
Market developmentcould be accelerated by green public procurement
Public procurementcould set example for private purchasing
Slide 9
Europäische Kommission, Generaldirektion Energie und Verkehr
CEMR Working Group on Transport, Brussels, 5 June 2007
Public Procurement of Vehicles
Purchases of new vehicles by public bodies (EU-25)
Procurements Market share
Cars 110.000 1%
Light Duty
Vehicles (LDV)
110.000 6%
Heavy Duty
Vehicles (HDV)
35.000 6%
Buses 17.000 33%
Slide 10
Europäische Kommission, Generaldirektion Energie und Verkehr
CEMR Working Group on Transport, Brussels, 5 June 2007
Previous Proposal onGreen Vehicle Procurement
ObjectiveImproving air quality, in particular in cities, and supporting the market introduction of clean vehicles
Focus on heavy duty vehicles Enhanced Environmentally friendly Vehicle (EEV) standard of Community legislation on pollutant emissions should be met by a quota (25%) in the procurement of vehicles for public transport services
Council and European Parliament commentsBroader approach in objectives and range of vehicles
Slide 11
Europäische Kommission, Generaldirektion Energie und Verkehr
CEMR Working Group on Transport, Brussels, 5 June 2007
New Approach onGreen Vehicle Procurement
Open approach – possible options among others: Accelerated introduction of new Euro standardsProcurement of vehicles for public transport services should give preference to the latest Euro standard adopted by Council and Parliament
Inclusion of life-time costs Award criteria for vehicle procurement for public transport services should include the life-time cost for energy consumption and CO2 and pollutant emissionsInternalisation of external costs
Coverage of all categories of vehicles and all providers of public transport services; harmonised methodology; voluntary application
Slide 12

Green Paper on Urban Transport
Integrated approach on urban transport and mobility under full respect of subsidiarity
Consultation on Internet (28.2. – 30.4. 2007)
6 questions on “Market development of clean and energy efficient vehicles”
Response: Support for action on European Union level Support for promotion by public procurement
