COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2022/247

of 14 December 2021

amending 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 and the reporting procedure

(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 Article 11(1)(a) and (d) 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. |

(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) | In order to provide for a thorough analysis in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation (EU) 2018/956, Member States should monitor and report data that allow determining the vehicle axle configuration of reported vehicles on the basis of the number of powered axles. Such data is recorded in entry 3 of the certificate of conformity of a newly registered heavy-duty vehicle. |

(2)

In order to provide for a thorough analysis in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation (EU) 2018/956, Member States should monitor and report data that allow determining the vehicle axle configuration of reported vehicles on the basis of the number of powered axles. Such data is recorded in entry 3 of the certificate of conformity of a newly registered heavy-duty vehicle.

| (3) | That information would allow the Commission to identify vehicles falling within the scope of data reported by the manufacturers pursuant to Article 5 of Regulation (EU) 2018/956 based on information reported by the Member States without necessitating additional exchanges with manufacturers. |

That information would allow the Commission to identify vehicles falling within the scope of data reported by the manufacturers pursuant to Article 5 of Regulation (EU) 2018/956 based on information reported by the Member States without necessitating additional exchanges with manufacturers.

| (4) | Based on the experience gained from preparing the report in accordance with Article 10 for the reporting period of the year 2019 and in order to provide a thorough analysis of reported data in the coming years, it is necessary that manufacturers report specific data on the behaviour of individual vehicle components during the run of the simulation tool as recorded in the ‘sum exec data file’. |

Annex II to Regulation (EU) 2018/956 sets out the monitoring and reporting procedure.

| (6) | Based on the experience gained from the application of Regulation (EU) 2018/956, the European Environment Agency should have the flexibility to adapt the structure and character of the databases to technical progress and should not be bound by specific technical determinations. The descriptive names of the databases should thus be removed from Annex II. |
