ELABORATION OF A PROGRAM TO FACILITATE THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DIRECTIVE 2009/33/EC ON THE PROMOTION OF CLEAN AND ENERGY-EFFICIENT ROAD MOTOR VEHICLES
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORT ENGINEERING - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
The energy consumption, carbon-dioxide and other air pollutant emissions of motor vehicles can be reduced substantially by various recently developed technical solutions. The use of these new technologies increases the price of the vehicles which causes an unwanted economic burden for the purchasers of such vehicles. The market competition between manufacturers requires low prices which delays the adaptation of the new, more efficient technologies. The recently enacted legislation, aimed at the promotion of purchasing clean and energy-efficient road transport vehicles, intends to remedy this problem.
