The aim of the legislative proposal for a Union certification framework for carbon removals initiative is to ensure high-quality EU certified carbon removals, through a transparent and credible governance framework. In doing so, this would open up the possibility for further investments towards carbon removal activities and increased deployment.

Christian EHLER (EPP,DE), Rapporteur, holds a press conference on Net-Zero industry act during the plenary session. The "Net-Zero industry act" sets a target for Europe to produce 40% of net-zero technologies based on National Energy and Climate Plans (NECPs) and to capture 25% of the global market value for these technologies. MEPs want to broaden the scope of the rules to encompass the entire supply chain, including components, materials, and machinery. This transcription is a result of an automatic process.

Bas EICKHOUT (Greens/EFA,NL), Rapporteur, holds a press conference on CO2 emission performance targets for new heavy-duty vehicles. The Parliament's proposal put forward the targets should be set at 45% for the period 2030-2034, 70% for 2035-2039 (compared to 65% proposed by the Commission) and 90% as of 2040. They also agree that newly registered urban buses should be zero-emission vehicles from 2030. This transcription is a result of an automatic process. Please check against delivery.

Press conference by Bas EICKHOUT (Greens/EFA,NL), Rapporteur on CO2 emission performance targets for new heavy-duty vehicles

MEPs debate and vote on on strengthening requirements for heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs), such as buses, trucks and trailers, to reduce their CO2 emissions. They propose that the targets should be set at 45% for the period 2030-2034, 70% for 2035-2039 (compared to 65% proposed by the Commission) and 90% as of 2040. They also agree that newly registered urban buses should be zero-emission vehicles from 2030. Background: On 14 February 2023, the Commission tabled a legislative proposal to set CO2 standards for heavy-duty vehicles from 2030 onwards to help reach the EU’s objective to be climate neutral by 2050 and lower the demand for imported fossil fuels. Heavy-duty vehicles, such as trucks, city buses and long-distance buses, are responsible for more than 25% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from road transport in the EU and account for over 6% of total EU GHG emissions.
