Why the EU Green Deal needs a strong regulation on recharging infrastructure for vehicles

July 1, 2021

The revision of the EU's Alternative Fuels Infrastructure law is the opportunity to create an EU-wide single recharging market. Market players — be it automotive manufacturers, recharge point operators or customers — need this common single market to benefit from the right conditions to play their part in the mass adoption of zero emission road transport.

In this letter, T&E, the auto industry association ACEA, the IndustriALL manufacturing trade union, and groups representing the whole e-mobility sector say this can only be achieved through an EU regulation.
