When it comes to implementing the European Union's Renewable Energy Directive, RED-II, Federal Environment Minister Svenja Schulze (SPD) is not proceeding with enough ambition from the perspective of the automotive industry.

“The attitude of the Federal Environment Minister is lacking in ambition.

The quota for renewable fuel is set far too low, "criticizes the President of the Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA), Hildegard Müller:" We need a higher quota for renewable fuel, we want 23 percent by 2030 with a minimum quota of five percent for E. -Fuels and hydrogen. "


The VDA President is also critical of the planned quadruple counting of the charging current of electromobility against the greenhouse gas quota of the mineral oil companies.

This is at the expense of climate-friendly fuels and means a renewed privilege for electric mobility.

"Narrowing down to a monotechnology path is dangerous," explained Müller: "It is not the combustion engine that is the climate problem, it is the fuel."

"Ms. Schulze should also be ambitious when it comes to fuels and not give preference to other areas," says Müller: "If the minister wants the charging current to be credited four times, then hydrogen and e-fuels must also be credited at least twice."
