Recital 4
(4) Greenhouse gas emissions from lorries, buses and coaches, i.e. heavy-duty vehicles, currently represent around a quarter of road transport emissions in the Union and are expected to increase further by 2030 given the steadily increasing average distance over which goods are transported. Effective measures to curb emissions from heavy-duty vehicles need to be introduced in order to contribute to the necessary emission reductions in the transport sector.

Recital 7
(7) Information on a vehicle’s performance in terms of CO2 emissions and fuel consumption should be made publicly available to enable all vehicle operators to take well-informed purchasing decisions. All vehicle manufacturers will be able to compare their vehicles’ performance with those of other makes. This will increase the incentives for innovation, encourage modernisation in vehicle energy efficiency and therefore increase competitiveness. That information will also provide policy makers at Union and Member State level with a sound basis for developing policies to promote the uptake of more energy-efficient vehicles. It is therefore appropriate that the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption values determined for each new heavy-duty vehicle pursuant to Commission Regulation (EU) […/…]15[Opoce to include correct reference] are monitored, reported to the Commission and made available to the public. _________________ 15 Commission Regulation (EU) […/…] implementing Regulation (EU) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the determination of CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of heavy-duty vehicles and amending Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Commission Regulation (EU) No 582/2011 (OJ L…,..,..).

Recital 9
(9) Data on CO2 emissions and fuel consumption will be available for certain new heavy-duty vehicles that are registered in [2019]. Starting from that date, the competent authorities of the Member States should therefore be requirencouraged to provide data on new registrations and manufacturers should be required to provide the technical data relating to those vehicles.

Recital 11
Recital 11
(11) It is important to ensure that the data monitored and reported is robust and reliable. The Commission should therefore have the means to verify and, where necessary, correct the final data. Where the Commission’s verification of the correctness of the data reveals non- compliance with the requirements laid down in this Regulation, the Commission should be able to call on the Member States to penalise the manufacturer by means of a dissuasive fine. Parameters allowing the data to be adequately traced and verified should therefore also be provided for in the monitoring requirements.

Recital 14
(14) In order to ensure that the data requirements and the monitoring and reporting procedure remain relevant over time for assessing the heavy-duty vehicle fleet’s contribution to CO2 emissions, as well as to ensure the availability of data on new and advanced CO2 reducing technologies, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union should be delegated to the Commission in respect of amending the data requirements and the monitoring and reporting procedure laid down in the Annexes. It is of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at independent expert level, and that those consultations be conducted in accordance with the principles laid down in the Interinstitutional Agreement on Better Law-Making of 13 April 2016. In particular, to ensure equal participation in the preparation of delegated acts, the European Parliament and the Council receive all documents at the same time as Member States’ experts, and their experts systematically have access to meetings of Commission expert groups dealing with the preparation of delegated acts.
