Article 4 – paragraph 1
1. Member States shall, as a minimum, limit their annual anthropogenic emissions of sulphur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), volatile organic compounds other than methane (NMVOC), ammonia (NH3), and particulate matter (PM2,5) and methane (CH4) in accordance with the national emission reduction commitments applicable from 2020 and 2030, as laid down in Annex II.

Article 4 – paragraph 3 – subparagraph 1
Article 4 – paragraph 3 – subparagraph 1
Without prejudice to paragraph 1, Member States shall take all the necessary measures not entailing disproportionate costs to limit their 2025 anthropogenic emissions of SO2, NOx, NMVOC, NH3, PM2,5 and CH4. The levels of those emissions shall be determined on the basis of fuels sold or fuels used, by a linear reduction trajectory established between their emission levels for 2020 and the emission levels defined by the emission reduction commitments for 2030.

Article 5 – paragraph 1 – introductory part
1. In order to comply withWith a view to the intermediate emission levels determined for 2025 in accordance with Article 4, paragraph 2, and the national emission reduction commitments set out in Annex II applicable from 2030 onwards for NOx, SO2 and PM2,5, Member States may, in the interests of greater EU-wide flexibility, apply to the Commission for an adjustment to their reduction target for relevant pollutants, in so far as atmospheric pollution and its harmful effects on human health and the environment are more effectively reduced in the Union as a whole through cost- efficient measures in other Member States. The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 13 concerning the development of methods and criteria and the decision on this compensatory balancing. Member States may offset NOx, SO2 and PM2,5 emission reductions achieved by international maritime traffic against NOx, SO2 and PM2,5 emissions released by other sources in the same year, provided that they meet the following conditions:

Article 5 – paragraph 3
3. Member States may establish adjusted annual national emission inventories for SO2, NOx, NH3, NMVOC and PM2,5 in accordance with Annex IV where non- compliance with their national emission reduction commitments or their intermediate emission levels would result from applying improved emission inventory methods updated in accordance with scientific knowledge. Member States may depart from the national emission reduction commitments applicable from 2030 onwards in accordance with Annex II to the extent that changes have occurred in the technical and economic factors which provided the basis for the original calculation of these targets. Member States shall notify the reasons for departing from these targets to the Commission and apply for a transfer of credits. The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 13 concerning the development of methods and criteria and the decision on the transfer of emission credits.
