EU Legislative Interests

Activities in 2025 and to be pursued in 2026: Ensuring that the interests and positions of ASECAP and its members are taken on board into the EU Study on EETS Providers Remuneration. Monitoring the implementation of the following EU pieces of legislation: - Taxonomy - EU Regulation on the Deployment of Alternative Fuels Infrastructure (AFIR) - Eurovignette Directive - EU Directive on Road Infrastructure Safety Management (RISM) - ITS Directive - Commission’s Proposed Text on Heavy Vehicle Classification and CO2 Tolling - EU Directive 2023/959 amending the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) Keeping a close eye of the potential impact of those EU legal texts on: - work and activities of the toll motorway operators - existing concession contracts - CO2 emissions-based tolling Cybersecurity Radio Frequency: ASECAP has been confirmed as a member of the expert group on radio equipment set up by DG GROW. The group is working to protect DSRC Tolling, existing C-ITS deployments based on ITS-G5, and smart tachograph enforcement from attempts to remove protection mechanisms for the 5.9 GHz spectrum. Additionally, ASECAP has initiated dialogues with public transport operators (EMTA, OCA, and UITP) to find common ground, as these operators also have services in the 5.9 GHz spectrum. ITS: ASECAP has been appointed to the new EU ITS Advisory Group.
