New rules for biofuels and green energy in transport
The act introduces EU requirements to increase the share of renewable energy, including green electricity and advanced biofuels, in road and rail transport. The changes aim to reduce emissions and protect the environment through stricter controls on the origin of fuel raw materials.
Key points
Green electricity in transport: Fuel suppliers can count green electricity supplied to electric vehicles and trains towards their environmental obligations.
Cooperation with charging stations: EV charging station operators and rail carriers can sign agreements with fuel companies, potentially boosting investments in charging infrastructure.
Nature and soil protection: Raw materials for biofuels cannot come from high-biodiversity areas like peatlands or rich forests. Farmers must follow soil protection plans.
Limiting food-crop biofuels: The law limits the use of food and feed crops for fuel production, promoting advanced biofuels made from waste instead.
Penalties and alternative fees: Strict penalties are introduced for fuel companies failing to meet green targets, with an option to pay an alternative fee between 2026 and 2029.
