CO2 emission performance standards for new heavy-duty vehicles (debate) HR

Recital 9
(9) In order to fully realise the energy efficiency potential and ensure that the road transport sector as a whole contributes to the greenhouse gas emission reductions agreed, it is appropriate to complement the already existing CO2 emission standards for new passenger cars and light commercial vehicles by setting CO2 emission performance standards for new heavy-duty vehicles. These standards will be a driver for innovation in fuel-efficient technologies, contributing to the strengthening of the technological leadership of the Union’s manufacturers and suppliers and the competitiveness of EU transport businesses, especially SMEs.

(12a) Highlights that the most EU transport freight operators are SMEs with limited access to finance. Therefore, the future solutions must be cost effective and balanced. It is essential that there is a strong incentive structure to support uptake of more fuel-efficient vehicles, as well as the provision of EU funding mechanisms.

(13) In the light of innovation and to take account of the implementation of new technologies improving the fuel efficiency of heavy-duty vehicles, the VECTO simulation tool as well as Regulation (EU) 2017/2400 will be continuously and timely updatedmust be continuously and timely developed and updated to properly cover all available technologies on the market. Given the key role of these new technologies in reducing CO2 emissions from the transport sector, the timely and comprehensive update of the VECTO simulation tool is essential element in reducing CO2 from heavy-duty vehicles. The Commission shall present digitally updated list of the technologies included in VECTO, with a corresponding timeline every year.

(22) For the purpose of calculating the average specific emissions of a manufacturer, all zero- and low-emission heavy-duty vehicles should therefore be counted multiple times. The level of incentives should vary according to the actual CO2 emissions of the vehicle. In order to avoid a weakening of the environmental objectives, the resulting savings should be subject to a cap. Taking into account the difficulties in developing long-haul zero-and low-emission vehicles, those vehicles over 400km in range, should be exempted from the cap.

Recital 26
(26) In order to incentivise early reduction achievements, a manufacturer, whose average specific emissions are below the emission reduction trajectory defined by the reference emissions in 2019 and the 2025 target, should be able to bank those emission credits for the purpose of target compliance in 2025. Similarly, a manufacturer, whose average specific emissions are below the emission reduction trajectory between the 2025 and the 2030 targets, should be able to bank those emission credits for the purpose of target compliance in the period 2025 to 2029.

(34) In 2022, the Commission should assess the effectiveness of the CO2 emission standards laid down in this Regulation and in particular the level of the reductions to be achieved by 2030, the modalities that should be available for achieving that target and beyond, as well as the setting of CO2 reduction targets to other types of heavy-duty vehicles such as smaller lorries, buses, coaches and trailers. That assessment should also include, strictly for the purpose of this Regulation, considerations of heavy-duty vehicles and vehicle combinations beyond standard weights and dimensions applicable to national transport, for example Modular Concepts. The Commission should also assess the possibility of including an impact assessment examining the potential to change to Well-to-Wheel methodology for the targets 2030 onwards.

Article 5 – paragraph 3
Article 5 – paragraph 3
3. The zero- and low-emission factor shall reduce the average specific emissions of a manufacturer by a maximum of 3% . The contribution of zero and low-emission heavy- duty vehicles ofrom the categories referred to in the second sub-paragraph of Article 2(1) to that factor shall reduce the average specific emissions of a manufacturer by a maximum of 1.5%long-haul category, of over 400km range, shall be exempt from the cap.
Amendment 121 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 7 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 2
Article 7 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 2
Emission credits shall be acquired over the period 2019 to 2029. However, the credits acquired over the period 2019 to 2024 shall be taken into account for the purpose of determining the manufacturer’s compliance with the 2025 specific emission target only.
