BAKGRUNN (fra kommisjonsbeslutningen)
(1) Article 6 of Regulation (EU) 2018/842 provides the possibility for certain Member States to have a limited cancellation of EU ETS emission allowances taken into account for their compliance under Article 9 of that Regulation (the ‘ETS flexibility’).
(2) Annex III of Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/2126 (2) sets out the total quantities that may be used for the ETS flexibility pursuant to Article 4(4) of Regulation (EU) 2018/842. The total number was determined applying the percentages notified by Member States by 31 December 2019 pursuant to Article 6(3) of Regulation (EU) 2018/842 to the values of the calculated 2005 greenhouse gas emissions values.
(3) Following the amendment of Regulation (EU) 2018/842 by Regulation (EU) 2023/857 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3), Malta’s maximum percentage of ETS flexibility for the years 2025-2030 was increased from 2 % to 7 %. In addition, some Member States were granted a new opportunity to notify the Commission by 31 December 2023 whether they intended to make use or further use of the ETS flexibility for the period 2025-2030.
(4) By 31 December 2023, Malta and Sweden notified the Commission of their intended use of this flexibility. Therefore, the quantities to be used for the ETS flexibility set out in Annex III to Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/2126 should be amended for those two Member States.
(5) The additional quantities for these two Member States that may be taken into account for a Member State’s compliance under Article 9 of Regulation (EU) 2018/842 are determined by applying the percentages for the period 2025 to 2030 as notified pursuant to Articles 6(3a) and (3b) of that Regulation to the values of the calculated 2005 greenhouse gas emissions as established in Annex I of Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/2126.
(6) Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/2126 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(7) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Climate Change Committee,
