Proposal for a regulation
Recital 15

(15) The Community Strategy to reduce CO2 emissions from passenger cars and light commercial vehicles established an integrated approach with a view to reaching the Community target of 120 g CO2/km by 2012, while also presenting a longer-term vision of further emission reductions. Regulation (EC) No 443/2009 substantiates this longer-term view by setting a target of 95 g CO2/km as average emissions for the new car fleet. In order to ensure consistency with that approach and to provide planning certainty for the industry, a long-term target for the specific emissions of CO2 of light commercial vehicles in 2020 should be set.deleted

Recital 20

(20). Manufacturers' compliance with the targets under this Regulation should be assessed at the Community level. Manufacturers whose average specific emissions of CO2 exceed those permitted under this Regulation should pay an excess emissions premium with respect to each calendar year from 1 January 2014. The premium should be modulated as a function of the extent to which manufacturers fail to comply with their target. In order to ensure consistency, the premium mechanism should be similar to the one set in Regulation (EC) No 443/20095. The amounts of the excess emissions premium should be considered as revenue in the General Budget of the European Union.

Recital 24

(24) The speed of road vehicles has a strong influence on their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. In addition, in the absence of speed limitation for light commercial vehicles, it is possible that there is an element of competition as regards top speed which could lead to oversized powertrains and associated inefficiencies in slower operating conditions. It is therefore appropriate to investigate the feasibility of extending the scope of Council Directive 92/6/EEC on the installation and use of speed limitation devices for certain categories of motor vehicles in the Community, with the aim of including light commercial vehicles covered in this Regulation.deleted

Article 4

For the calendar year commencing 1 January 20145 and each subsequent calendar year, each manufacturer of complete light commercial vehicles shall ensure that its average specific emissions of CO2 do not exceed its specific emissions target determined in accordance with Annex I or, where a manufacturer is granted a derogation under Article 10, in accordance with that derogation. For the purpose of determining each manufacturer's specific emissions of CO2, the following percentages of each manufacturer's new light commercial vehicles registered in the relevant year shall be taken into account: – 65% in 2015, – 75% in 20146, – 80% in 20157, – 100% from 20168 onwards. As of 1 January 2016 completed vehicles shall also be included in determining each manufacturer’s average specific CO2 emissions.

Article 8 – paragraph 1

1. In respect of the period 1 January 20145 and every calendar year thereafter, the Commission shall impose an excess emissions premium on a manufacturer or pool manager, as appropriate, where a manufacturer's average specific emissions of CO2 exceed its specific emissions target. The excess emissions premiums shall be similar to premiums paid in other sectors under the European Emission Trading Scheme.

Proposal for a regulation
Article 8 – paragraph 2

2. The excess emissions premium under paragraph 1 shall be calculated using the following formula (a) From 2014 until 2018 (i) For excess emissions of more than 3 g CO2/km: ((Excess emissions – 3) × €120 + 45 €) × number of new light commercial vehicles. (ii) For excess emissions of more than 2 g CO2/km but no more than 3 g CO2/km: ((Excess emissions – 2) × 25 € + 20 €) × number of new light commercial vehicles. (iii) For excess emissions of more than 1 but no more than 2 g CO2/km: ((Excess emissions – 1) × 15 € + 5 €) × number of new light commercial vehicles. (iv) For excess emissions of no more than 1 g CO2/km: Excess emissions × 5 € × number of new light commercial vehicles. (b) From 2019: (Excess emissions × €120) × number of new light commercial vehicles. Where for the purposes of this Article: 'excess emissions' means the positive number of grams per kilometre by which a manufacturer's average specific emissions of CO2 taking into account CO2 emissions reductions due to innovative technologies approved in accordance with Article 11 exceeded its specific emissions target in the calendar year or part of the calendar year to which the obligation under Article 4 applies, rounded to the nearest three decimal places; and 'number of new light commercial vehicles' means the number of new light commercial vehicles of which it is the manufacturer and which were registered in that period according to the phase-in criteria as set out in Article 4.deleted
