(Finance) – Today, on the occasion of the Automotive Table, in the presence of Minister Adolfo Urso, the general manager of Assocostieri, DARIO SORIA, reiterated the importance of a European policy based on technological neutrality, On the recognition of the strategic role of biofuels in the ecological transition and on the need to accelerate the replacement of the heavy vehicular park with low emissions vehicles.
In its concept note, the European Commission underlines the urgency to reduce emissions in the automotive sector, however omitting to mention the fundamental contribution of sustainable biofuels. This gap could compromise a fair and inclusive decarbonisation process.
On the occasion of the G7 Climate, Energy and EnvironmentAssocuctors signed the Turin Joint Statement on Sustainable Biofuels, highlighting the multiple benefits deriving from the use of biofuelsincluding the diversification of energy sources, compatibility with existing engines and support for the circular economy. The companies in the sector are already investing in advanced biocarbulators such as hunger, HVO, biomethane and bioethanol, essential elements for the construction of a more sustainable energy system and low carbon emissions.
Associates reiterates that the imposition of a single type of fuel, such as e-fuels, would be in contrast with the principle of technological neutrality and could compromise the competitiveness of the sector. It is therefore essential to enhance all available energy solutions, including LPG, CNG/GNL, Bio-Gpl and Biomethane, which concretely contribute to the reduction of polluting emissions.
The Association “He convinced the implementation of incentives for low -emission vehicles, in line with the recommendations of the European Commission, However, underlining the need to extend these measures to all sustainable technologies, and not exclusively to electric vehicles. In particular, said Dario Soria, “it is important to adopt targeted incentive tools for heavy low -emission vehicles, a fundamental aspect for achieving EU climatic objectives, which requires adequate financial endowment and long -term strategic planning. The heavy transport sector, in fact, represents one of the main sources of emissions, and its renewal with low -emission vehicles and alternative to -wheel drive is crucial for an effective ecological transition “.
It is also necessary A multi -year incentive plan for the renewal of the heavy vehicular park to protect the competitiveness of the industry and to ensure the achievement of the ambitious targets reduction of CO2 emissions. The recent decree of 6 August of MIT, which saw the 25 million euros per second end in seconds, intended for the renewal of heavy vehicles, has shown great interest by operators for the replacement of polluting vehicles with more sustainable solutions. Stimulating this process further is essential for self -transporters to access low emissions solutions without remaining linked to traditional diesel vehicles.
Associates He underlines that the enhancement of alternative energy solutions, including biofuels and the GNL, “represents a concrete opportunity for the sectornot only to reduce polluting emissions, but also to support the circular economy and encourage the adoption of national fuels produced from waste and by -products. This not only immediately reduces emissions, but also supports the competitiveness of Italian companies, engaged in the development of advanced technologies for a more sustainable energy future “.
