### (6) the person or organisation responsible for the compliance with this regulation should be the shipping company , defined as the shipowner or any other organisation or person , such as the manager or the bareboat charterer , that has assumed the responsibility for the operation of the ship from the shipowner and that , on assuming such responsibility , has agreed to take over all the duties and responsibilities imposed by the international management code for the safe operation of ships and for pollution prevention. this definition is based on the definition of ‘company’ in article 3 , point (d) of regulation (eu) 2015/757 of the european parliament and of the council21 , and in line with the global data collection system established in 2016 by the international maritime organization (imo). in line with the polluter pays principle , the shipping company could , by means of a contractual arrangement , hold the entity that is directly responsible for the decisions affecting the greenhouse gas intensity of the energy used by the ship accountable for the compliance costs under this regulation. this entity would normally be the entity that is responsible for the choice of fuel , route and speed of the ship. ### (6) the person or organisation responsible for the compliance with this regulation should be the shipping company , defined as the shipowner or any other organisation or person , such as the manager or the bareboat charterer , that has assumed the responsibility for the operation of the ship from the shipowner and that , on assuming such responsibility , has agreed to take over all the duties and responsibilities imposed by the international management code for the safe operation of ships and for pollution prevention. this definition is based on the definition of ‘company’ in article 3 , point (d) of regulation (eu) 2015/757 of the european parliament and of the council21 , and in line with the global data collection system established in 2016 by the international maritime organization (imo). however , the shipping company is not always responsible for purchasing the fuel and/or taking operational decisions that affect the greenhouse gas intensity of the energy used by the ship. these responsibilities may be assumed by an entity other than the shipping company under a contractual agreement. in that case , in order to properly implement the ‘polluter pays’ principle and to encourage the uptake of cleaner fuels , a binding clause should be included in these agreements for the purpose of passing on to that entity the costs under this regulation , namely the penalties related to the under-performance of the ship. this clause should provide that the entity responsible for the operation of the ship should reimburse the shipping company with respect to the penalties imposed for each non-compliant port call and failing to meet the limits on the greenhouse gas intensity of the energy used on-board the ship. in this regard operation of the ship includes determining the cargo carried , the itinerary (including the port of calls) , the routeing and/or the speed of the ship.


### (15) this regulation should establish the methodology and the formula that should apply to calculate the yearly average greenhouse gas intensity of the energy used on-board by a ship. this formula should be based on the fuel consumption reported by ships and consider the relevant emission factors of these fuels. the use of substitute sources of energy , such as wind or electricity , should also be reflected in the methodology. ### (15) this regulation should establish the methodology and the formula that should apply to calculate the yearly average greenhouse gas intensity of the energy used on-board by a ship. this formula should be based on the fuel consumption reported by ships and consider the relevant emission factors of these fuels on the basis of the information provided by the eu maritime fuel suppliers. the use of substitute sources of energy , such as wind or electricity , should also be reflected in the methodology.


### (37) the revenues generated from the payment of penalties should be used to promote the distribution and use of renewable and low-carbon fuels in the maritime sector and help maritime operators to meet their climate and environmental goals. for this purpose these revenues should be allocated to the the innovation fund referred to in article 10a(8) of directive 2003/87/ec. ### (37) the revenues generated from the payment of penalties should be used to promote the distribution and use of renewable and low-carbon fuels in the maritime sector , help maritime operators to meet their climate and environmental goals , finance/co-finance infrastructure and if necessary superstructure investments in the eu ports as well as to support redeployment , re-skilling and up-skilling of workers , in quality social dialogue with social partners. for this purpose these revenues should be allocated to the innovation fund referred to in article 10a(8) of directive 2003/87/ec.


### (39) given the importance of consequences that the measures taken by the verifiers under this regulation may have for the companies concerned , in particular regarding the determination of non-compliant port calls , calculation of the amounts of penalties and refusal to issue a fueleu certificate of compliance , those companies should be entitled to apply for a review of such measures to the competent authority in the member state where the verifier was accredited. in the light of the fundamental right to an effective remedy , enshrined in article 47 of the charter of fundamental rights of the european union , decisions taken by the competent authorities and the managing bodies of the port under this regulation should be subject to judicial review , carried out in accordance with the national law of the member state concerned. ### (39) given the importance of consequences that the measures taken by the verifiers under this regulation may have for the companies concerned , in particular regarding the determination of non-compliant port calls , calculation of the amounts of penalties or in case of repeated violations refusal to issue a fueleu certificate of compliance , those companies should be entitled to apply for a review of such measures to the competent authority in the member state where the verifier was accredited. in the light of the fundamental right to an effective remedy , enshrined in article 47 of the charter of fundamental rights of the european union , decisions taken by the competent authorities and the managing bodies of the port under this regulation should be subject to judicial review , carried out in accordance with the national law of the member state concerned.


### (42) given the international dimension of the maritime sector , a global approach to limiting the greenhouse gas intensity of the energy used by ships is preferable as it could be regarded as more effective due to its broader scope. in this context , and with a view to facilitating the development of international rules within the international maritime organisation (imo) , the commission should share relevant information on the implementation of this regulation with the imo and other relevant international bodies and relevant submissions should be made to the imo. where an agreement on a global aproach is reached on matters of relevance to this regulation , the commission should review the present regulation with a view to aligning it , where appropriate , with the international rules. ### (42) given the international dimension of the maritime sector , a global approach to limiting the greenhouse gas intensity of the energy used by ships is preferable as it could be regarded as more effective due to its broader scope. in this context , and with a view to facilitating the development of international rules within the international maritime organisation (imo) , the commission should share relevant information on the implementation of this regulation with the imo and other relevant international bodies and relevant submissions should be made to the imo. the eu must continue its efforts to promote more ambitious maritime decarbonization targets within the imo. where an agreement on a global aproach is reached on matters of relevance to this regulation , the commission should review the present regulation with a view to aligning it , where appropriate , with the international rules.

### (3) the european green deal combines a comprehensive set of mutually reinforcing measures and initiatives aimed at achieving climate neutrality in the eu by 2050 , and sets out a new growth strategy that aims to transform the union into a fair and prosperous society , with a modern , resource-efficient and competitive economy , where economic growth is decoupled from resource use. it also aims to protect , conserve and enhance the union’s natural capital , and protect the health and well-being of citizens from environment-related risks and impacts. at the same time , this transition affects women and men differently and has a particular impact on some disadvantaged groups , such as older people , persons with disabilities and persons with a minority racial or ethnic background. it must therefore be ensured that the transition is just and inclusive , leaving no one behind. ### (3) the european green deal combines a comprehensive set of mutually reinforcing measures and initiatives aimed at the assumed achievement of climate neutrality in the eu by 2050 , and sets out a strategy that largely runs counter to the goals of growth , prosperity , competitiveness , resource efficiency and social justice as it consistently disregards fundamental laws of a free market economy. a ‘transition’ to a supposedly better society is a moral valuation of politics and legislation over the head of the sovereign state , so this terminology should be rejected. in the context of the green deal , the requirement to ‘leave no one behind’ should not mean that , as stated euphemistically in recital 12 of regulation (eu) 2019/631 , entire industries and the jobs associated with them are first destroyed and the resulting social upheaval is subsequently dealt with by taking a scattergun approach and using taxpayers’ money to pay out money to millions of affected people and to organise retraining for jobs that do not exist. instead , these people should be kept in work so that they can earn a living.


### (8) in order to achieve a reduction in net greenhouse gas emissions of at least 55 % by 2030 compared to 1990 , it is necessary to strengthen the reduction requirements set out in regulation (eu) 2019/631 of the european parliament and of the council25 for both passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. a clear pathway also needs to be set for further reductions beyond 2030 to contribute to achieving the climate neutrality objective by 2050. without ambitious action on greenhouse gas emission reductions in road transport , higher emission reductions would be needed in other sectors , including sectors where decarbonisation is more challenging. ### (8) in order to achieve a reduction in net greenhouse gas emissions of at least 55 % by 2030 compared to 1990 , it is necessary to strengthen the reduction requirements set out in regulation (eu) 2019/631 of the european parliament and of the council25 for both passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. a clear pathway also needs to be set for further reductions beyond 2030 to contribute to achieving the climate neutrality objective by 2050. without ambitious action on greenhouse gas emission reductions in road transport , higher emission reductions would be needed in other sectors , including sectors where decarbonisation is more challenging. however , due to the economic and social importance of road transport these measures will need to ensure that the competitiveness of the industry is maintained and the transition is effected in a socially acceptable manner.

### (10) against that background , new strengthened co2 emission reduction targets should be set for both new passenger cars and new light commercial vehicles for the period 2030 onwards. those targets should be set at a level that will deliver a strong signal to accelerate the uptake of zero-emission vehicles on the union market and to stimulate innovation in zero-emission technologies in a cost-efficient way. ### (10) against that background , new strengthened co2 emission reduction targets should be set for both new passenger cars and new light commercial vehicles for the period 2030 onwards. those targets should be set at a level that respects the principle of technological neutrality while delivering a strong signal to accelerate the uptake of zero-emission vehicles on the union market and to stimulate innovation in zero-emission technologies in a cost-efficient way , while the different starting points of member states , including differences in purchasing power of citizens should also be taken into account.


### (11) the targets in the revised co2 performance standards should be accompanied by a european strategy to address the challenges posed by the scale-up of the manufacturing of zero-emission vehicles and associated technologies , as well as the need for up- and re-skilling of workers in the sector and the economic diversification and reconversion of activities. where appropriate , financial support should be considered at the level of the eu and member states to crowd in private investment , including via the european social fund plus , the just transition fund , the innovation fund , the recovery and resilience facility and other instruments of the multiannual financial framework and the next generation eu , in line with state aid rules. the revised environmental and energy state aid rules will enable member states to support business to decarbonize their production processes and adopt greener technologies in the context of the new industrial strategy. ### (11) the targets in the revised co2 performance standards should be accompanied by a european strategy to address the challenges posed by the specificities of each member state , including the differences in purchasing power of citizens , the scale-up of the manufacturing of zero- and low-emission vehicles and associated technologies , as well as the need for up- and re-skilling of worker sin the sector and the economic diversification and reconversion of activities. where appropriate , financial support should stepped up at the level of the eu and member states to mitigate the imbalance in purchasing power and to crowd in private investment , including via the european social fund plus , the just transition fund , the innovation fund , the recovery and resilience facility , the automotive sector support fund and other instruments of the multiannual financial framework and the next generation eu , in line with state aid rules. the revised environmental and energy state aid rules will enable member states to support business to decarbonize their production processes and adopt greener technologies in the context of the new industrial strategy.
