Bakgrunn
(fra kommisjonsbeslutningen)
(1) In accordance with Regulation (EU) No 517/2014, the placing on the Union market of at least 100 tonnes of CO2 equivalent of hydrofluorocarbons by producers or importers is subject to quantitative limits in order to ensure their gradual reduction.
(2) The Commission is required to determine those quantitative limits and allocate quotas to each producer or importer.
(3) For the period 2015 to 2017, the quota allocation for producers and importers who reported data under Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 842/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) should be determined on the basis of individual reference values.
(4) The reference values are calculated on the basis of the annual average of the quantities of hydrofluorocarbons the producers or importers have reported to have placed on the market from 2009 to 2012, while excluding quantities of hydrofluorocarbons for the usage referred to in Article 15(2) of Regulation (EU) No 517/2014 during the same period, on the basis of available data.
(5) The determination of the reference value is limited by the constraints of the reported data under Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 842/2006.
(6) The calculation of reference values on the basis of reported data resulted in negative quantities for some undertakings. These undertakings are therefore considered to not having reported placing hydrofluorocarbons on the market from 2009 to 2012. They may obtain a quota in accordance with Article 16(2) of Regulation (EU) No 517/2014.
(7) The reference values for producers and importers should be recalculated every three years as from 2017 in order to ensure that undertakings are allowed to continue their activities on the basis of the average volumes they placed on the market in immediately preceding years. This Decision should therefore expire on 31 December 2017.
(8) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 24 of Regulation (EU) No 517/2014
