Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/888
of 13 March 2019
amending Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2018/956 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the data on new heavy-duty vehicles to be monitored and reported by Member States and by manufacturers
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2018/956 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 June 2018 on the monitoring and reporting of CO2 emissions from and fuel consumption of new heavy-duty vehicles(1), and in particular point (a) of Article 11(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Part A of Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2018/956 specifies the data to be monitored and reported by the Member States relating to new heavy-duty vehicles registered for the first time in the Union.
(2) Part B of Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2018/956 specifies in its point 2 the data to be monitored and reported by heavy-duty vehicle manufacturers for each new heavy-duty vehicle.
(3) As of 1 July 2019, vehicle manufacturers determine and declare additional data related to the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of new heavy-duty vehicles pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European parliament and of the Council(2) and its implementing measures. With a view to an effective implementation of the CO2 legislation for heavy-duty vehicles, it is important to ensure a comprehensive, transparent and appropriate collection of data related to the configuration of the heavy-duty vehicle fleet in the Union, its development over time and potential impact on CO2 emissions. Heavy-duty vehicle manufacturers should therefore monitor those data and report them to the Commission.
(4) To allow for a thorough analysis of such additional data, in particular for the identification of vocational vehicles, it is also appropriate that Member State competent authorities monitor and report complementary registration information.
(5) Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2018/956 should therefore be amended accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 June 2009 on type-approval of motor vehicles and engines with respect to emissions from heavy duty vehicles (Euro VI) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information and amending Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 and Directive 2007/46/EC and repealing Directives 80/1269/EEC, 2005/55/EC and 2005/78/EC (OJ L 188, 18.7.2009, p. 1).
