Clean Power for Transport Infrastructure

The European Commission, through its Alternative Fuels Directive 2014/94/EU, is seeking to promote the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure to enable an increase in the uptake of alternative fuels vehicles and reduce Europe’s dependence on oil and oil related products.

By Steer

The European Commission, through its Alternative Fuels Directive 2014/94/EU, is seeking to promote the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure to enable an increase in the uptake of alternative fuels vehicles and reduce Europe’s dependence on oil and oil related products.

The Commission appointed Steer Davies Gleave to undertake a study to explore how innovative business models and financing solutions could support increased deployment of recharging/refuelling infrastructure on the motorways of the Trans-European Transport (TEN-T) core network for the following alternative fuels:

  • High-power electric charging; 
  • Compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG); and 
  • Hydrogen 

You can read the final report of the study at EU Publications.
