COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2020/2173
of 16 October 2020
amending Annexes I, II and III to Regulation (EU) 2019/631 of the European Parliament and of the Council to update the monitoring parameters and clarify certain aspects relating to the change in the regulatory test procedure
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2019/631 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 setting CO2 emission performance standards for new passenger cars and new light commercial vehicles, and repealing Regulations (EC) No 443/2009 and (EU) No 510/2011 (1), and in particular Articles 7(8) and 15(8) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
In order to calculate a manufacturer’s specific emission targets for the period 2021 to 2024 pursuant to Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2019/631, CO2 emissions data for vehicles registered in calendar year 2020 is required. For manufacturers that place vehicles on the market of the Union for the first time in the period 2021 to 2024, it is necessary to clarify how their specific emission targets as well as derogation targets for that period should be determined, taking into account that CO2 emissions data will not, or only partially, be available for those manufacturers in calendar year 2020. |
(2) |
Similarly, a clarification is needed for manufacturers that place only vehicles with zero CO2 emissions on the market of the Union in the calendar year 2020 as regards how their specific emission targets in the period 2021 to 2024 should be determined. |
(3) |
From 1 January 2021, the CO2 emission standards are to be based on CO2 emissions data determined in accordance with the Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) as set out in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1151 (2). It is therefore necessary to amend Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2019/631 in order to adjust the parameters to be monitored and reported and to remove references to data determined on the basis of the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC). However, for the reporting of the data for calendar year 2020, it is appropriate to allow the new and the existing provisions to overlap until 28 February 2021. |
(4) |
The opportunity should also be taken to harmonise, to the extent possible, the monitoring parameters for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles and to align all provisions relating to how the monitoring parameters are to be recorded and reported by Member States as set out in Commission Implementing Regulations (EU) No 1014/2010 (3) and (EU) No 293/2012 (4) together with the reporting formats set out in Annexes II and III to Regulation (EU) 2019/631. |
(5) |
Certain new parameters should be monitored and reported in view of the preparation of a procedure for monitoring of real-world CO2 emissions and fuel or energy consumption as provided for in Article 12 of Regulation (EU) 2019/631, and for verifying the CO2 emissions of vehicles in-service as provided for in Article 13 of that Regulation. This includes, in particular, fuel consumption values and, on request from the Commission, the parameters used for the calculation of the CO2 emission values recorded in the certificates of conformity of the vehicles, i.e. the road load coefficients, frontal area and tyre rolling resistance class. |
(6) |
Regulation (EU) 2019/631 should be amended accordingly, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Annexes I, II and III to Regulation (EU) 2019/631 are amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 16 October 2020.
For the Commission
The President
Ursula VON DER LEYEN
