Proposal for a regulation
Recital 16
(16) It is necessary to lay down rules applying to connected products that, at the time of the sale, rental or leasing agreement incorporate or are interconnected with a service in such a way that the absence of the service would prevent the product from performing itsone of its main functions. Such related services can be part of the sale, rent or lease agreement, or such services are normally provided for products of the same type and the user could reasonably expect them to be provided given the nature of the product and taking into account any public statement made by or on behalf of the seller, renter, lessor or other persons in previous links of the chain of transactions, including the manufacturer. These related services may themselves generate data of value to the user independently of the data collection capabilities of the product with which they are interconnected. Neither the power supply nor the supply of the connectivity are to be interpreted as related services under this Regulation. This Regulation should also apply to a related service that is not supplied by the seller, renter or lessor itself, but is supplied, under the sales, rental or lease contract, by a third party. In the event of doubt as to whether the supply of service forms part of the sale, rent or lease contract, this Regulation should apply. For the sake of legal certainty, electronic communications services are not in scope.

Amendment 296 #

2021/0426(COD)

Proposal for a directive
Recital 5 a (new)
(5 a) The dilemma between affordable housing and climate protection requires technological neutrality and the innovative power of business and science. The price signal of carbon emission trading unleashes competition and guides action so that emission reduction takes place where it is most cost-effective, thus reducing the overall cost of the climate transition for the EU and its citizens. Under the European Green Deal, the Commission therefore proposed revising Directive 2003/87/EC (EU-ETS) to expand carbon emissions trading to road transport and buildings, with the view of aiming for a carbon price signal for the whole economy. This inclusion of buildings in emissions trading has the potential to replace costly and ineffective regulatory requirements for energy efficiency in buildings in the long term.

Amendment 338 #

2021/0426(COD)

Proposal for a directive
Recital 14
(14) Two-thirds of the energy used for heating and cooling of buildings still comes from fossil fuels. In order to decarbonise the building sector, it is of particular importance to phase out fossil fuel in heating and cooling. Therefore, Member States should indicate their national policies and measures to phase out fossil fuels in heating and cooling in their building renovation plans, and no financial incentives should be given for the installation of fossil fuel boilers under the next Multiannual Financial Framework as of 2027, with the exception of those selected for investment, before 2027, under the European Regional Development Fund and on the Cohesion Fund and of those that are able to run on renewable energy sources. A clear legal basis for the ban of heat generators based on their greenhouse gas emissions or the type of fuel used should support national phase-out policies and measures.

(27) The Union-wide minimum energy performance standards should be based on harmonised energy performance classes. By defining the lowest energy performance class G as the worst-performing 15%buildings of each Member State’s national building stock, the harmonisation of energy performance classes ensures similar efforts by all Member States, while the definition of the best energy performance class A ensures the convergence of the harmonised energy performance class scale towards the common vision of zero-emission buildings.

While vehicles in general have delivered substantial emission reductions across the range of regulated pollutants, this was not the case for NOx emissions from diesel engines or particles for gasoline direct injection engines, installed in particular in light-duty vehicles.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 4
(4) The Commission performed a detailed analysis of the procedures, tests and requirements for type approval that are set out in Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 on the basis of own research and external information and found that the emissions generated by real driving on the road of Euro 5 or Euro 6 vehicles in almost all cases substantially exceed the emissions measured on the regulatory New European Driving Cycle (NEDC), in particular with respect to NOx emissions of diesel vehicles.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 7
(7) On 13 December 2018, the General Court delivered judgment in Joined Cases T-339/16, T-352/16 and T-391/1622 concerning an action for annulment of Regulation (EU) 2016/646. The General Court annulled the part of Regulation (EU) 2016/646 which established the conformity factors used to assess compliance of RDE test results with the emission limits laid down in Regulation (EC) No 715/2007. The Court found that only the legislator could introduce those conformity factors as they touched upon an essential element of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007. The error margin should be revised by Commission annually downwards, reflecting the improved quality of measuring procedure and the technical progress of PEMS equipment, unless the Commission justifies a reason for not being able to do so. _________________ 22Judgment of 13 December 2018, Ville de Paris, Ville de Bruxelles and Ayuntamiento de Madrid v Commission, T-339/16, T- 352/16 and T-391/16, EU:T:2018:927.

2019/0101(COD)

(9) In order to allow manufacturers to comply with the Euro 6 emission limits in the context of RDE test procedure, the compliance criteria for RDE should be introduced in two steps. During the first step, upon the request of the manufacturer, a temporary conformity factor should apply, while as a second step only the final conformity factor should be used. The Commission should keep under review the final conformity factors in light of technical progress. In this regard, the Commission is called upon to take into consideration the standards adopted by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) for a standard procedure to assess RED measurement uncertainty with regard to gaseous and particle emissions.
