This type of investment aid aims to create individual incentives to reduce negative externalities by relocating undertakings that create major pollution to areas where such pollution will have a less damaging effect, which will reduce external costs.
Ta tip naložbene pomoči je namenjen oblikovanju posameznih spodbud za zmanjšanje negativnih zunanjih učinkov s preselitvijo podjetij, ki močno onesnažujejo, na območja, kjer bo imelo tako onesnaževanje manj škodljiv učinek, kar bo zmanjšalo zunanje stroške.
In line with the precautionary principle, these Guidelines introduce the possibility of granting aid for the relocation of high risk establishments in accordance with Council Directive 96/82/EC of 9 December 1996 on the control of major-accident hazards involving dangerous substances [23] (hereafter the “Seveso II Directive”) [24].
V skladu s previdnostnim načelom te smernice uvajajo možnost za dodelitev pomoči za preselitev obratov visokega tveganja na podlagi Direktive Sveta 96/82/ES z dne 9. decembra 1996 o obvladovanju nevarnosti večjih nesreč, v katere so vključene nevarne snovi [23] (v nadaljnjem besedilu: Direktiva Seveso II) [24].
Past accidents have shown that the location of an establishment covered by the Seveso II Directive is of crucial importance as regards both the prevention of accidents and limitation of the consequences of accidents on people and the environment.
Nezgode v preteklosti so pokazale, da je pri preprečevanju nezgod in omejevanju posledic nezgod za ljudi ter okolje bistvena lokacija obrata, ki ga zajema Direktiva Seveso II.
State aid may therefore be justified if the relocation is made for environmental reasons.
Državna pomoč je tako lahko upravičena, če se preselitev izvede iz okoljskih razlogov.
To ensure that aid is not granted for relocation for other purposes, an administrative or judicial decision of a competent public authority or an agreement between the competent public authority and the undertaking to relocate the firm is required.
Za zagotovitev, da za preselitev iz drugih namenov ne bo dodeljena pomoč, bi bila potrebna upravna ali sodna odločba pristojnega javnega organa ali dogovor med pristojnim javnim organom in podjetjem o preselitvi podjetja.
The eligible costs must take into account any advantages that the firm may obtain due to the relocation.
V upravičenih stroških je treba upoštevati vse ugodnosti, ki jih lahko pridobi podjetje zaradi preselitve.
Tradable permit schemes may involve State aid in various ways, for example, when EFTA States grant permits and allowances below their market value and this is imputable to EFTA States.
Sheme trgovanja z dovoljenji lahko vključujejo državno pomoč na različne načine, na primer kadar države Efte dodelijo dovoljenja in pravice pod njihovo tržno vrednostjo ter je to pripisano državam Efte.
This type of aid may be used to target negative externalities by allowing market-based instruments targeting environmental objectives to be introduced.
Ta vrsta pomoči se lahko uporablja za obravnavanje negativnih zunanjih učinkov z dopuščanjem uvedbe tržno usmerjenih instrumentov, ki so osredotočeni na okoljske cilje.
If the global amount of permits granted by the Member State is lower than the global expected needs of undertakings, the overall effect on the level of environmental protection will be positive.
Če je skupni znesek dovoljenj, ki jih država članica dodeli, nižji od skupnih pričakovanih potreb podjetij, bo splošen učinek na raven varstva okolja pozitiven.
At the individual level of each undertaking, if the allowances granted do not cover the totality of expected needs of the undertaking, the undertaking must either reduce its pollution, thus contributing to the improvement of the level of environmental protection, or buy supplementary allowances on the market, thus paying a compensation for its pollution.
Če na ravni posameznega podjetja odobrene pravice ne krijejo vseh pričakovanih potreb podjetja, mora to bodisi zmanjšati svoje onesnaževanje in tako prispevati k povečanju stopnje varstva okolja ali kupiti dopolnilne pravice na trgu in tako plačati nadomestilo za svoje onesnaževanje.
To limit the distortion of competition, no over-allocation of allowances can be justified and provision must be made to avoid undue barriers to entry.
Zaradi omejitve izkrivljanja konkurence ni mogoče upravičiti nobene prekomerne dodelitve pravic, poleg tega pa je treba zagotoviti, da se preprečijo nepotrebne ovire za dostop.
Aid in the form of reductions of or exemptions from environmental taxes
Pomoč v obliki znižanj ali oprostitev okoljskih dajatev
Reductions of and exemptions from environmental taxes concerning certain sectors or categories of undertakings may make it feasible to adopt higher taxes for other undertakings, thus resulting in an overall improvement of cost internalisation, and to create further incentives to improve on environmental protection.
Z znižanji ali oprostitvami okoljskih dajatev v zvezi z določenimi sektorji ali kategorijami podjetij lahko postane izvedljivo sprejetje višjih dajatev za druga podjetja, posledica česar bi bilo splošno izboljšanje internalizacije stroškov in ustvarjanje dodatnih spodbud za izboljšanje varstva okolja.
Accordingly, this type of aid may be necessary to target negative externalities indirectly by facilitating the introduction or maintenance of relatively high national environmental taxation.
V skladu s tem je ta vrsta pomoči lahko nujna za posredno obravnavanje negativnih zunanjih učinkov, tako da olajša uvedbo ali ohranitev razmeroma visoke stopnje nacionalnih okoljskih dajatev.
For aid to be compatible, it must be shown that the exemptions or reductions are necessary for all the suggested categories of beneficiaries and that they are proportional in size.
Da bi bila pomoč združljiva, je treba dokazati, da so oprostitve ali znižanja potrebna za vse predlagane kategorije upravičencev ter da so sorazmerni.
This is assumed to be the case if beneficiaries pay at least the Community minimum tax level set by the applicable Directive, if any [25].
Predvideva se, da je tako le v primeru, če upravičenci plačujejo vsaj najnižjo davčno raven Skupnosti, ki jo določa morebitna veljavna direktiva [25].
Otherwise, the necessity will depend on the extent to which the national tax impacts on production costs as well as on the possibility to pass on the tax to consumers and reduce profit margins.
Sicer bo potreba odvisna od tega, kakšen vpliv ima nacionalna dajatev na proizvodne stroške, ter od možnosti prenosa dajatve na potrošnike in zmanjšanja stopnje dobička.
Proportionality will depend on the extent to which the beneficiaries can further reduce their consumption or emission, pay a part of the national tax or enter into environmental agreements to reduce pollution [26].
Sorazmernost bo odvisna od tega, v kolikšni meri lahko upravičenci dodatno znižajo svojo porabo ali svoje emisije, plačajo del nacionalne dajatve ali sklenejo okoljske dogovore za zmanjšanje onesnaževanja [26].
Scope of application of the Guidelines
Področje uporabe smernic
They will be applied in accordance with other EEA policies on State aid and other provisions of the EEA Agreement and legislation adopted pursuant to the EEA Agreement.
Uporabljale se bodo v skladu z drugimi politikami EGP o državni pomoči, drugimi določbami Sporazuma EGP in zakonodajo, sprejeto v skladu s Sporazumom EGP.
These Guidelines will also refer to legislation not incorporated into the EEA Agreement [27].
Te smernice se bodo nanašale tudi na zakonodajo, ki ni vključena v Sporazum EGP [27].
These Guidelines apply to aid [28] to support environmental protection in all sectors governed by the EEA Agreement.
Te smernice veljajo za pomoč [28] za podporo varstva okolja v vseh sektorjih, ki jih ureja Sporazum EGP.
They also apply to those sectors which are subject to specific EEA rules on State aid (steel processing, shipbuilding, motor vehicles, synthetic fibres, transport and coal) unless such specific rules provide otherwise.
Prav tako se uporabljajo za tiste sektorje, za katere veljajo posebna pravila EGP o državni pomoči (predelava jekla, ladjedelstvo, motorna vozila, sintetična vlakna, promet in premogovništvo), razen če tovrstna posebna pravila določajo drugače.
The design and manufacture of environmentally friendly products, machines or means of transport with a view to operating with fewer natural resources and action taken within plants or other production units with a view to improving safety or hygiene are not covered by these Guidelines.
Te smernice ne zajemajo zasnove in izdelave okolju prijaznih proizvodov, strojev ali prevoznih sredstev, katerih cilj je obratovanje z manjšo količino naravnih virov, ter ukrepov, ki so bili sprejeti v obratih ali drugih proizvodnih enotah z namenom izboljšanja varnosti ali higiene.
Trade in agricultural products fish and other marine products falls to a large extent outside the scope of the EEA Agreement [29].
Trgovina s kmetijskimi proizvodi, ribjimi in drugimi morskimi proizvodi v veliki meri ne spada na področje Sporazuma EGP [29].
Since the Authority does not have the competence to review aid measures for environmental protection which on this basis fall outside the scope of the EEA Agreement they will not be covered by these Guidelines.
Ker Nadzorni organ ni pristojen za revizijo ukrepov pomoči za varstvo okolja, ki na tej podlagi ne spadajo na področje Sporazuma EGP, jih te smernice ne bodo zajele.
The financing of environmental protection measures relating to air, road, railway, inland waterway and maritime transport infrastructure, including any project of common interest as identified in Decision No 1692/96/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 July 1996 on Community guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network [30] is not covered by these Guidelines.
Financiranje okoljevarstvenih ukrepov, povezanih z infrastrukturo v zračnem, cestnem in železniškem prometu ter prometu po celinskih plovnih poteh in pomorskem prometu, vključno z vsemi projekti skupnega interesa, kakor so opredeljeni v Odločbi št. 1692/96/ES Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta z dne 23. julija 1996 o smernicah Skupnosti za razvoj vseevropskega prometnega omrežja [30], ni zajeto v teh smernicah.
State aid for research, development and innovation in the environmental field is subject to the rules set out in the Authority’s State aid Guidelines on aid for research and development and innovation [31].
Za državno pomoč za raziskave, razvoj in inovacije na področju okolja veljajo predpisi iz Smernic o državni pomoči za raziskave in razvoj ter inovacije [31] Nadzornega organa.
However, the market diffusion stage of eco-innovation (acquisition of an eco-innovation asset) is covered by these Guidelines.
Faza tržnega razširjanja ekoloških inovacij (nakup ekološko inovativnega sredstva) pa je zajeta v teh smernicah.
The characteristics of aid for environmental training activities do not justify separate rules to those on aid for training activities generally, and the Authority will therefore examine such aid in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 68/2001 of 12 January 2001 on the application of Articles 87 and 88 of the EC Treaty to training aid [32].
Značilnosti pomoči za dejavnosti okoljskega usposabljanja ne upravičujejo ločenih predpisov od splošnih predpisov o pomoči za dejavnosti usposabljanja in zato bo Nadzorni organ proučil tako pomoč v skladu z Uredbo Komisije (ES) št. 68/2001 z dne 12. januarja 2001 o uporabi členov 87 in 88 Pogodbe ES pri pomoči za usposabljanje [32].
Consultancy services play an important role in helping small and medium-sized enterprises to make progress in environmental protection.
Storitve svetovanja imajo pomembno vlogo pri pomoči malim in srednjim podjetjem pri doseganju napredka na področju varstva okolja.
In particular, they can be used to conduct eco-audits or to evaluate the economic benefits of an environmentally friendly investment for the undertaking and thus give an incentive to those enterprises to undertake the investment supporting environmental protection.
Uporabne so lahko zlasti za izvedbo okoljskih presoj ali za oceno gospodarskih koristi okolju prijazne naložbe za podjetje ter tako navedena podjetja spodbujajo k naložbam v podporo varstvu okolja.
Aid to small and medium-sized enterprises for advisory/consultancy services in the environmental field may be granted under Commission Regulation (EC) No 70/2001 of 12 January 2001 on the application of Articles 87 and 88 of the EC Treaty to State aid to small and medium-sized enterprises [33].
Pomoč malim in srednjim podjetjem za storitve svetovanja/posvetovanja na področju okolja se lahko dodeli na podlagi Uredbe Komisije (ES) št. 70/2001 z dne 12. januarja 2001 o uporabi členov 87 in 88 Pogodbe ES pri pomoči za majhna in srednje velika podjetja [33].
These Guidelines do not apply to stranded costs as defined in the State Aid Guidelines on the Methodology for analysing State aid linked to stranded costs [34].
Te smernice se ne uporabljajo za nasedle stroške, kakor so opredeljeni v Smernicah o državni pomoči v zvezi z metodologijo za analizo državne pomoči, povezane z nasedlimi stroški [34].
Furthermore, to the extent that the provisions relating to energy saving set out in section 3.1.5 are not applicable, these Guidelines do not apply to State aid to investments in infrastructure related to district heating, which will be assessed under Article 61(3)(c) of the EEA Agreement.
Poleg tega se, če ne veljajo določbe o varčevanju energije iz oddelka 3.1.5, te smernice ne uporabljajo za državno pomoč za naložbe v infrastrukturo v zvezi z daljinskim ogrevanjem, ki bo ocenjena v skladu s členom 61(3)(c) Sporazuma EGP.
In some EFTA States, companies may be subject to environmental taxes and, at the same time, participate in tradable permit schemes.
V nekaterih državah Efte podjetja plačujejo okoljske dajatve in hkrati sodelujejo v shemah trgovanja z dovoljenji.
The Authority has not gathered sufficient experience in assessing the compatibility of reductions of environmental taxes in such situations.
Nadzorni organ nima zadostnih izkušenj v zvezi z ocenjevanjem združljivosti znižanj okoljskih dajatev v takšnih primerih.
Consequently, it is too early for the Authority to provide general guidance thereon.
Zato je prezgodaj, da bi Nadzorni organ o tem pripravil splošna navodila.
Instead, the assessment of such cases, to the extent that they constitute State aid within the meaning of Article 61(1) of the EEA Agreement, will take place on the basis of Article 61(3)(c) of the EEA Agreement.
Namesto tega bo ocena takih zadev, če bodo pomenile državno pomoč v smislu člena 61(1) Sporazuma EGP, izvedena na podlagi člena 61(3)(c) Sporazuma EGP.
Finally, some of the means to support fossil fuel power plants or other industrial installations equipped with CO2 capture, transport and storage facilities, or individual elements of the Carbon Capture Storage chain, envisaged by EFTA States, could constitute State aid but, in view of the lack of experience, it is too early to lay down guidelines relating to the authorisation of any such aid.
Nazadnje bi lahko nekatera izmed sredstev za podporo elektrarn na fosilna goriva ali drugih industrijskih obratov, opremljenih z zmogljivostmi za zajem, prevoz in shranjevanje CO2, ali posameznih elementov verige zajemanja in shranjevanja ogljikovega dioksida, ki jih predvidevajo države Efte, lahko pomenila državno pomoč, vendar je glede na pomanjkanje izkušenj še prezgodaj za določitev smernic v zvezi z odobritvijo kakršne koli tovrstne pomoči.
Account must be taken of the strategic importance of this technology for the EEA in terms of energy security, reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
Upoštevati je treba strateški pomen te tehnologije za EGP v smislu varnosti oskrbe z energijo in zmanjšanja emisij toplogrednih plinov.
Reference may also be made to the Community long-term objective to limit climate change to 2 °C above pre-industrial levels and the Commission’s stated support for the construction of industrial-scale demonstration plants up to 2015 [35], provided that they are environmentally safe and contribute to environmental protection.
Sklicevati se je mogoče tudi na dolgoročni cilj Skupnosti glede omejitve podnebne spremembe na 2 °C v primerjavi s predindustrijsko ravnjo ter podporo, ki jo je Komisija izrazila izgradnji industrijskih demonstracijskih obratov do leta 2015 [35], če so varni za okolje in prispevajo k varstvu okolja.
On this basis the Authority will have a generally positive attitude towards State aid for such projects.
Nadzorni organ bo na tej podlagi imel pozitivni odnos do državne pomoči za tovrstne projekte.
Projects could be assessed under Article 61(3)(c) of the EEA Agreement or be eligible as important projects of common European interest under the conditions set out in Article 61(3)(b) of the Agreement and point 147 of these Guidelines.
Projekti bi se lahko ocenjevali na podlagi člena 61(3)(c) Sporazuma EGP ali bi bili upravičeni kot pomembni projekti splošnega evropskega interesa v skladu s pogoji iz člena 61(3)(b) Sporazuma in točke 147 teh smernic.
