THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 establishing a framework for the setting of ecodesign requirements for energy-related products (1), and in particular Article 15(1) thereof,
After consulting the Ecodesign Consultation Forum,
Whereas:
(1) Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 641/2009 of 22 July 2009 implementing Directive 2005/32/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for glandless standalone circulators and glandless circulators integrated in products (2) requires the Commission to review the methodology for calculating the energy efficiency index, set out in Annex II, point 2, to that Regulation, for glandless circulators integrated in products before 1 January 2012.
(2) The review carried out by the Commission as well as experience gained with the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 641/2009 revealed the necessity to amend certain provisions of Regulation (EC) No 641/2009 in order to avoid unintended impacts on the circulator markets and on the performance of the products covered by that Regulation.
(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 19(1) of Directive 2009/125/EC,
