(6) Laying down harmonised rules for accounting greenhouse gas emissions of freight and passenger transport services is therefore appropriate to attain comparable figures for greenhouse gas emissions of transport services and to avoid misleading information on their performance resulting from the possibility to choose between various emissions calculation methods and input data. Such rules should ensure a level playing field between transport modes, segments, and the Union’s national networks. It should also help create incentives to behavioural change among businesses and customers to reduce greenhouse emissions from transport services through the uptake and use of comparable and reliable greenhouse emissions data. The only way to fulfill these requirements is to use a methodology for calculation of the full life cycle greenhouse gas emissions.

(8) Despite benefits stemming from the increased transparency on the performance of transport services, mandatory application of this Regulation to all entities offering transport services on the Union market would be disproportionate and lead to excessive costs and burden. Therefore, this Regulation should apply only to those entities that decide or are bound by other relevant legislative and non-legislative regimes, to calculate and disclose information on greenhouse gas emissions of freight or passengers transport services that start orand end on the territory of the Union. This consequently includes services, the origin or destination points of which are situated in a third country.

(11) A proper method for calculating the full life cycle greenhouse gas emissions of transport services is one of the key aspects for the harmonised Union framework set out by this Regulation. The method should ensure that the emissions calculations performed across a transport chain provide comparable and accurate greenhouse gas emissions data, by following a single set of methodological steps. It should also adequately account for the needs of the transport market, in order to avoid unnecessary complexity, excessive burden and costs, and be accepted by stakeholders.

(12) EN ISO standard 14083:2023, published by the European Committee for Standardisation57 in April 2023, and transposing ISO standard 14083:2023, was chosen to be the reference methodology for calculating well-to-wheel greenhouse gas emissions of transport services under this Regulation. The analysis showed that ISO standard 14083:2023 proved to be the most relevant and proportional in addressing the objectives of this Regulation. The quantification of emissions is performed on a well-to-wheel basis, which includes greenhouse gas emissions stemming from energy provision and vehicle use during transport and hub operations. _________________ 57 https://www.cencenelec.eu
