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. %K emission %K energy efficiency %K green public procurement %U http://www.ijtte.com/uploads/2012-10-01/5ebd8343-ae4b-0c87IJTTE%20vol2%20no3%20%281%29.pdf
