The EU Directive 2014/94 / UE from the European Parliament and of the Council, from 22 of October of 2014, relating to the implementation of the infrastructure for alternative fuels, defines a common framework of measures for the implementation of the infrastructure for alternative fuels in the European Union, in order to minimize oil dependence and mitigate the environmental impact of transport.
That includes charging point networks standardized with non-discriminatory access of electric vehicles (EV). The current lack of interoperability of the charging infrastructure is the main barrier for the development of the electric vehicle (EV) market.
The general objective of the Action is to foster the use of EV in all of Europe, guaranteeing the accessibility of EVs from and to the Iberian Peninsula through a cross-border framework totally interoperable, thus contributing significantly for a European strategy of implementing alternative fuels.
