The European Union (Deployment of Alternative Fuels Infrastructure) Regulations 2018 seeks to develop the market for alternative transport fuels. This includes
\nelectricity, hydrogen synthetic and paraffinic fuels, natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas. There are technical requirements for recharging points for electric vehicles, hydrogen refuelling points, and compressed natural gas refuelling points.<\/p>\n
The regulations are administered by SEAI (electric recharging shoreside electricity for maritime 0and CRU (hydrogen refuelling CNG refuelling. The regulator can issue directions in the event of non-compliance.<\/p>\n
The first phase of the Taskforce’s work, which focused on electric vehicles, is currently nearing completion. The second phase looked at other alternative fuels, including compressed natural gas. This included the examination of what supports are needed to incentivise investment in compressed natural gas refuelling infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n
