Recital 1
(1) The European Green Deal launched a new growth strategy for the Union that aims to transform the Union into a fair and prosperous society with a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy. It reaffirms the Commission’s ambition to increase its climate targets and make Europe the first climate-neutral and zero-pollution continent by 2050 at the latest and aims to protect the health and well-being of citizens from environment- related risks and impacts. Furthermore, the EU is committed to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Sustainable Development Goals. Regulation (EU) 2021/1119 of the European Parliament and of the Council (‘European Climate Law’)1a, the 8th Environmental Action Programme, and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Sustainable Development Goals. _________________ 1a Regulation (EU) 2021/1119 establishing the framework for achieving climate neutrality and amending Regulations (EC) No 401/2009 and (EU) 2018/1999 (‘European Climate Law’) (OJ L 243, 9.7.2021, p. 1).

Recital 5 a (new)
(5 a) Ambitions to reduce GHG emissions including the emissions of fluorinated gases should be stepped up. By 2050, the International Energy Agency (IEA) expects the number of air conditions in the world to quadruple. Air condition alone could account for half a degree of global warming. Most households in hot countries today have not yet brought their first air condition. Air-conditioning needs to be hyper efficient, pollutant-free, affordable, and well maintained

Recital 7
(7) To ensure coherence with the reporting requirements under the Protocol, global warming potentials of HFCs should be calculated in terms of the 100-year global warming potential of one kilogram of a gas relative to one kilogram of CO2 based on the Fourth Assessment Report adopted by the IPCC. For other substances, the most recent IPCC Assessment Report should be used. Where available, the 20- year global warming potential should be provided to better inform about the climate impacts of the substances covered by this Regulation. The Commission should advocate for an update of the GWP values of fluorinated greenhouse gases in line with the Sixth Assessment Report adopted by the IPCC at the international level.
Amendment 129 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 9
Recital 9
(9) Given that the production process for some fluorinated compounds can result in insignificant emissions of other fluorinated greenhouse gases produced as by-products, such by-product emissions should be destroyed or recovered for subsequent use as a condition for the placing of fluorinated greenhouse gases on the market. Producers and importers should be required to document mitigation measures adopted to prevent emissions of trifluoromethane during the production process and proof of the destruction and recovery in line with the best available techniques.
Amendment 134 #

Recital 11
Recital 11
(11) To encourage the use of technologies with no impact or lower impact on the climate that may involve the use substances that are toxic, flammable or highly pressurized, the training of natural persons who carry out activities involving fluorinated greenhouse gases should cover technologies replacing or reducing the use of fluorinated greenhouse gases, including information on energy efficiency aspects and applicable regulations and technical standards. Certification and training programmes established under Regulation (EU) No 517/2014, which may be integrated in national vocational training systems, should be reviewed or adapted enabling technicians to handle alternative technologies safely. Member States should ensure that all of the workforce handling fluorinated greenhouse gases and alternative technologies are fully trained.

Recital 13
Recital 13
(13) Where suitable alternatives to the use of specific fluorinated greenhouse gases are available, bans should be introduced on the placing on the market of new equipment for refrigeration, air- conditioning, foams, technical aerosols and fire protection that contains fluorinated greenhouse gases or whose functioning relies upon those gases. Where alternatives are not available or cannot be used for technical or safety reasons, or where the use of such alternatives would entail disproportionate costs, it should be possible for the Commission to authorise an exemption to allow the placing on the market of such products and equipment for a limited period.
Amendment 151 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 13 a (new)
Recital 13 a (new)
(13 a) The Commission recognises, in its communication of 14 October 2020, entitled “Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability Towards a Toxic-Free Environment” that per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) require special attention, considering the large number of cases of contamination of soil and water - including drinking water - in the EU and globally, the number of people affected with a full spectrum of illnesses and the related societal and economic costs. In order to ensure coherence with Union policy and a high level of protection of human health and the environment, and given the availability of non-toxic alternatives, the use of fluorinated greenhouse gases that are also PFAS, whose production produces PFAS or otherwise decomposes into PFAS, should not be encouraged by this Regulation.
Amendment 157 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 13 b (new)
Recital 13 b (new)
(13 b) The Commission should request the European standardisation organisations to develop and update relevant harmonised standards to ensure the smooth implementation of the restrictions on placing on the market laid down in this Regulation. Member States should ensure that national standards and building codes are updated to reflect the allowable charge limits of flammable refrigerants, including IEC 60335-2-89 and IEC 60335-2-40 and should report on their efforts to that end and any exceptions to their update.

Recital 15
Recital 15
(15) Non-refillable containers for ozone depleting substancof fluorinated greenhouse gases, should be banned, considering that an amount of refrigerant inevitably remains in these containers when emptied, which is then released into the atmosphere. In this respect, this Regulation should prohibit their import, placing on the market, subsequent supply or making available on the market, use unless for laboratory and analytical uses, and their export. Containers of fluorinated gases should be labelled with information on arrangements for their return for refilling.
Amendment 162 #
(15 a) As third countries, particularly developing ones, might not have stringent recovery obligations for fluorinated greenhouse gases nor have the appropriate infrastructure to manage those gases at the end of life, exports of products and equipment containing fluorinated greenhouse gases and of containers of those gases from the Union to third countries could result in the release of those gases into the atmosphere when the products and equipment are discarded. As part of its global efforts to mitigate climate change, the Union should not permit the export of at least the most potenthy drofluorocarbons.
Amendment 166 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 20
Recital 20
(20) Considering the market value of the allocated quota, it is appropriate to claim a price for its allocation. That price should increase over time in order to provide a stable revenue stream. This avoids a further fragmentation of the market to the detriment of those undertakings that are in need of the HFC supply and already dependent on HFC trade in the declining market. It is assumed that undertakings that decide not to claim and pay any quota, for which they would be entitled in the year(s) prior to the calculation of reference values, have decided to leave the market and thus they do not get a new reference value. The revenue should be used to cover administrative costs and allow for additional investments in Member States to stimulate the training and uptake of natural refrigerants and measures to prevent illegal HFC trade.

(39 a) In its Communication of 14 October 2020 entitled “Improving access to justice in environmental matters in the EU and its Member States”, the Commission recognised that access to justice in environmental matters is not guaranteed in all Member States and called on the Council and the European Parliament to introduce explicit access to justice provisions in new and revised EU laws concerning environmental matters. This Regulation contains provisions which create equal conditions of access across the Union to national courts for members of the public who find that their public authorities are not incompliance with the obligations arising from it, in line with the Convention on Access to Information, Public Participation in Decision-making and Access to Justice in Environmental Matters (the “Aarhus Convention”).
