Monitoring the use of CO₂ neutral fuels in road transport - a cross-sectoral industry assessment

This report was prepared to respond to the European Commission’s request to industry, OEMs and fuel companies, to present technological options that can prove and monitor the use of CO₂ neutral fuels in new vehicles, and contribute to the European Commission’s commitment to present a methodology for registering vehicles running on CO₂ neutral fuels.

Monitoring CO₂ neutral fuels implies the tracking and tracing of the fuel from the production or entry point, in case of imports, all the way down to the final use in a given vehicle. The Working Group on Monitoring Methodologies (WGMM) therefore features a broad sectorial representation including OEMs and their suppliers, fuel producers and fuels suppliers, fuel retailers and their equipment suppliers, in order to ensure that the TCMV’s proposed methodology fits the requirements of all sectors of the automotive and fuels value chain for a robust and reliable proofing and reporting methodology.
