Commission Implementing Decision

of 17 December 2013

confirming or amending the average specific emissions of CO₂ and specific emissions targets for manufacturers of new light commercial vehicles for the calendar year 2012 pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council

(2013/807/EU)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 May 2011 setting emission performance standards for new light commercial vehicles as part of the Union’s integrated approach to reduce CO₂ emissions from light-duty vehicles1, and in particular Article 8(6) and Article 10(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

The Commission is required, pursuant to Article 8(6) of Regulation (EU) No 510/2011, to confirm or amend each year the average specific emissions of CO₂ and the specific emissions target for each manufacturer of light commercial vehicles in the Union. On that basis, the Commission is to determine whether manufacturers and pools of manufacturers formed in accordance with Article 7(1) of that Regulation have complied with their specific emissions targets in accordance with Article 4 of that Regulation.

(2)

For the calendar years 2012 and 2013, the specific emissions targets are not binding and the Commission should therefore calculate indicative targets. As those indicative targets will serve as indicators to manufacturers of the effort required to reach the mandatory target in 2014, it is appropriate to determine the average specific emissions of CO₂ of manufacturers for 2012 and 2013 in accordance with the requirements set out in the third paragraph of Article 4 of Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 and take into account 70 % of the manufacturer’s new light commercial vehicles registered in that year.

(3)

The detailed data to be used for the calculation of the average specific emissions of CO₂ and the specific emissions targets are set out in point 1 of Part A of Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 and are based on Member States’ registrations of new light commercial vehicles.

(4)

Where light commercial vehicles are type-approved in a multi-stage process, point 7 of Part B of Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 requires that the manufacturer of the base vehicle take responsibility for the CO₂ emissions of the completed vehicle. Pending the applicability of the procedure for determining CO₂ emissions from this category of vehicles as provided for in Section 5 of Annex XII to Commission Regulation (EC) No 692/20082, the Commission should calculate the specific emissions target for manufacturers of base vehicles using the mass in running order of the completed vehicle as defined in Article 3(1)(g) of Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 and should use the specific emissions of CO₂ of the base vehicle in accordance with the second paragraph of Article 4 of that Regulation.

(5)

The complete datasets for all Member States were made available to the Commission by the end of March 2013. Where, as a result of the verification of the data by the Commission, it was evident that certain data were missing or manifestly incorrect, the Commission contacted the Member States concerned and, subject to the agreement of those Member States, adjusted or completed the data accordingly. Where no agreement could be reached with a Member State, the provisional data of that Member State were not adjusted.

(6)

It should be noted that several Member States have not been able to distinguish between complete and completed light commercial vehicles in their current monitoring systems. As a consequence, the 2012 data for light commercial vehicles should be considered incomplete with regard to the monitoring of vehicles type-approved in a multi-stage process. In order to ensure a full and accurate monitoring of the CO₂ emissions and the technical data relating in particular to multi-stage vehicles, it is necessary to adjust the monitoring systems both at Union and Member State level. Therefore, the final values as confirmed in this Decision should not be considered fully representative of the CO₂ emissions performance of the new vehicle fleet in 2012.

(7)

On 18 June 2013, the Commission published the provisional data on light commercial vehicles and notified 60 manufacturers of the provisional calculations of their average specific emissions of CO₂ in 2012 and their specific emissions targets in accordance with Article 8(4) of Regulation (EU) No 510/2011. Manufacturers were asked to verify the data and to notify the Commission of any errors within three months of receipt of the notification in accordance with the Article 8(5) of that Regulation. Four manufacturers notified the Commission that they accepted the preliminary data without corrections whilst 24 manufacturers submitted notifications of errors.

(8)

For the 36 manufacturers that did not notify any errors in the datasets, the provisional data and provisional calculations of the average specific emissions of CO₂ and the specific emissions targets should be confirmed without adjustments.

(9)

The Commission has verified the corrections notified by the manufacturers and the respective justifications and the datasets have been adjusted as appropriate.

(10)

In the case of records with missing or incorrect identification parameters, such as type, variant, version code or type-approval number, the fact that manufacturers cannot verify or correct those records should be taken into account. As a consequence, it is appropriate to apply an error margin to the CO₂ emissions and mass values in those records.

(11)

The error margin should be calculated as the difference between the distances to the specific emissions target expressed as the specific emissions targets subtracted from the average emissions calculated including and excluding those registrations that cannot be verified by the manufacturers. Regardless of whether that difference is positive or negative, the error margin should always improve the distance to the target of the manufacturer.

(12)

The average specific emissions of CO₂ from new light commercial vehicles registered in 2012, the specific emissions targets and the difference between those two values should be confirmed or amended accordingly,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The values relating to the performance of manufacturers, as confirmed or amended for each manufacturer of light commercial vehicles and for each pool of manufacturers of light commercial vehicles in respect of the 2012 calendar year in accordance with Article 8(6) of Regulation (EU) No 510/2011, are specified in the Annex to this Decision.

The values referred to in points (a) to (e) of Article 10(1) of Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 for each manufacturer of light commercial vehicles and for each pool of manufacturers of light commercial vehicles in respect of the 2012 calendar year are also specified in the Annex to this Decision.

Explanatory notes to Tables 1 and 2

Column A:

Table 1: ‘Manufacturer name’ means the name of the manufacturer as notified to the Commission by the manufacturer concerned or, where no such notification has taken place, the name registered by the registration authority of the Member State.

Table 2: ‘Pool name’ means the name of the pool declared by the pool manager.

Column B:

‘P’ means that the manufacturer is a member of a pool (listed in Table 2) formed in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 and the pooling agreement is valid for the calendar year 2012.

Column C:

‘Number of registrations’ means the total number of new cars registered by Member States in a calendar year, not counting those registrations that relate to records where the values for mass or CO₂ are missing and those records which the manufacturer does not recognise. The number of registrations reported by Member States may otherwise not be changed.

Column D:

‘Average CO₂ (70 %) corrected’ means the average specific emissions of CO₂ that have been calculated on the basis of the 70 % lowest emitting vehicles in the manufacturer’s fleet in accordance with the third paragraph of Article 4 of Regulation (EU) No 510/2011. Where appropriate, the average specific emissions of CO₂ have been adjusted to take into account the corrections notified to the Commission by the manufacturer concerned. The records used for the calculation include those that contain a valid value for mass and CO₂ emissions.

Column E:

‘Specific emissions target’ means the emissions target calculated on the basis of the average mass of all vehicles attributed to a manufacturer applying the formula set out in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 510/2011.

Column F:

‘Distance to target’ means the difference between the average specific emissions of CO₂ specified in column D and the specific emissions target in column E. Where the value in column F is positive, the average specific emissions of CO₂ exceed the specific emissions target.

Column G:

‘Distance to target adjusted’ means that where the values in this column are different from those in column F, the values in that column have been adjusted to take into account an error margin. The error margin is calculated in accordance with the following formula:

Error
absolute value of [(AC1 – TG1) – (AC2 – TG2)]
AC1
the average specific emissions of CO₂ including the unidentifiable vehicles (as set out in column D);
TG1
the specific emissions target including the unidentifiable vehicles (as set out in column E);
AC2
the average specific emissions of CO₂ excluding the unidentifiable vehicles;
TG2
the specific emissions target excluding the unidentifiable vehicles.

Column I:

‘Average CO₂ (100 %)’ means the average specific emissions of CO₂ that have been calculated on the basis of 100 % of the vehicles attributed to the manufacturer. Where appropriate, the average specific emissions of CO₂ have been adjusted to take into account the corrections notified to the Commission by the manufacturer concerned. The records used for the calculation include those that contain a valid value for mass and CO₂ emissions but do not take into account the super-credits referred to in Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No 510/2011.
