ChargeUp Europe input to Consultation on Revision of TEN-T
The revision of the TEN-T needs to take place in the broader context of the ongoing revision of AFID and EPBD. This is a critical time in the transition to zero emission transport. The decarbonization of road transport is an achievable mid-term goal and can be accomplished with e-mobility at its core. A comprehensive EU wide governance regime for e-mobility should be developed to deliver a comprehensive and harmonized approach to EV charging rollout through coordinated revision of TEN-T, AFID, EPBD and TEN-E. This can provide the framework for EV charging infrastructure rollout at all levels - private, public and cross-border level and for different use cases.
For the TEN-T revision specifically, a number of key factors must be taken into account in order to deliver the most widespread, harmonized and effective EV charging rollout across the European road network which makes the transition to zero emission transport successful and doesn’t leave any regions behind.
