Amendment 282 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 29
(29) Further incentives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by using cost- efficient techniques should be provided. To that end,But the free allocation of emission allowances to stationary installations from 2026 onwards should bcannot become conditional on investments in techniques to increase energy efficiency and reduce emissions. Ensuring that this is focused on lLarger energy users would result in a substantial reduction in burden forand businesses with lower energy use, which may be owned by small and medium sized enterprises or micro-enterprises. [Reference to be confirmed with the revised EED]. The relevant delegated acts should be adjusted accordingly, need to maintain investment flexibility to better contribute to achieving the climate neutrality objective.

Proposal for a directive
Recital 31
(31) In order to better reflect technological progress and adjust the corresponding benchmark values to the relevant period of allocation while ensuring emission reduction incentives and properly rewarding innovation, the maximum adjustment of the benchmark values should be increased from 1,6 % to 2,5 % per yearmaintained at the level of 1,6 % per year as agreed for the Phase IV. For the period from 2026 to 2030, the benchmark values should thus be adjusted within a range of 4 % to 5032 % compared to the value applicable in the period from 2013 to 2020.

Recital 42
(42) The further exclusion of installations using exclusively biomass from the EU ETS haswill lead to situations where installations combusting a high share of biomass have obtained windfall profits by receiving free allowances greatly exceeding actual emissa lack of certainty over updating the benchmarks values for free allocations. Therefore, aA 100 % threshold value for zero-rated biomass combustion should be introduced above which mainstallations are excluded from the EU ETS. The threshold value of 95 % is in line with the uncertainty parameter set out in Article 2(16) of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33156 . _________________ 56 Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/331 of 19 December 2018 determining transitional Union-wide rules for harmonised free allocation of emission allowances pursuant to Article 10a of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 59, 27.2.2019, p. 8)ined for installations to be excluded from the EU ETS. .

In the case of installationentities covered by the obligation to conduct an energy audit under Article 8(4) of Directive 2012/27/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council(*) [Article reference to be updated with the revised Directive], free allocation shall only be granted fully if the recommendations of the audit report arneed to be implemented, to the extent that the pay- back time for the relevant investments does not exceed five 3 years and that the costs of those investments are proportionate. Otherwise, the amount of free allocation shall be reduced by 25 %. The amount of free allocation shall not be reduced if an operatorAn operator can demonstrates that it has implemented other measures which lead to greenhouse gas emission reductions equivalent to those recommended by the audit report. The measures referred to in the first subparagraph shall be adjusted accordingly.

Amendment 999 #
No fFree allocation at benchmark level shall be given in relation to the production of products listed in Annex I of Regulation [CBAM] as from the date of application of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanismuntil the full effectiveness of the CBAM in tackling the carbon leakage risk both on the EU market and on export markets is assessed and positively verified. For this purpose, in 2029 the Commission shall present to the European Parliament and the Council a report pursuant to Regulation [CBAM] regarding the effectiveness of the CBAM. The report shall also include the selected option to address the carbon leakage risk on export markets. The report by the Commission shall be accompanied by a legislative proposal to amend this article in view of gradually phasing out free allocation after 2030. Allowances resulting from the reduction of free allocation shall be made available to support innovation in relation to the production of products listed in Annex I of Regulation [CBAM] in accordance with Article 10a(8).

By way of derogation from the previous subparagraph, for the first years of operation of Regulation [CBAM], the production of these products shall benefit from free allocation in reduced amounts. A factor reducing the free allocation for the production of these products shall be applied (CBAM factor). The CBAM factor shall be equal to 100 % for the period during the entry into force of [CBAM regulation] and the end of 2025, 90 % in 2026 and shall be reduced by 10 percentage points each year to reach 0 % by the tenth year.deleted
