Two key amendments that were adopted today:
Adopted – Compromise Amendments 4 and 8 on Electricity supply for transport
Commenting on the vote, Cecile Toubeau, T&E policy officer for clean vehicles, said “On electric charging points, the European Parliament is sensibly focusing less on the quantity of charging points, and more on their accessibility – where they should be placed.

But we don’t see why Europe has a business in mandating refilling stations for natural gas – another high-carbon fossil fuel that we should get rid of, not encourage.“
