Article 1Subject matterThis Regulation lays down the requirements for the monitoring and reporting of CO2 emissions from and fuel consumption of new heavy-duty vehicles registered in the Union.
Article 2ScopeThis Regulation applies to the monitoring and reporting by Member States and manufacturers of heavy-duty vehicles of data on new heavy-duty vehicles.It applies with regard to the following vehicle categories:(a)vehicles of categories M1, M2, N1 and N2 with a reference mass that exceeds 2610 kg and which do not fall within the scope of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 of the European Parliament and of the CouncilRegulation (EC) No 715/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2007 on type approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles (Euro 5 and Euro 6) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information (OJ L 171, 29.6.2007, p. 1)., and all vehicles of categories M3 and N3;(b)vehicles of categories O3 and O4.For the purposes of this Regulation, those vehicles are referred to as heavy-duty vehicles.
Article 3DefinitionsFor the purposes of this Regulation, the definitions set out in Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the CouncilDirective 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 September 2007 establishing a framework for the approval of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles (Framework Directive) (OJ L 263, 9.10.2007, p. 1). and Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 apply.
Article 4Monitoring and reporting by Member States1.Starting from 1 January 2019, and for each subsequent calendar year, Member States shall monitor the data specified in Part A of Annex I relating to new heavy-duty vehicles registered for the first time in the Union.By 28 February each year, starting in 2020, the competent authorities of the Member States shall report those data to the Commission in accordance with the reporting procedure set out in Annex II.Data relating to new heavy-duty vehicles that were registered previously outside the Union shall not be monitored and reported, unless that registration was made less than three months before registration in the Union.2.The competent authorities responsible for the monitoring and reporting of data in accordance with this Regulation shall be those designated by the Member States in accordance with Article 8(7) of Regulation (EC) No 443/2009.
Article 5Monitoring and reporting by manufacturers1.From the starting years set out in point 1 of Part B of Annex I, manufacturers of heavy-duty vehicles shall monitor, on a calendar year basis, the data specified in point 2 of Part B of Annex I, for each new heavy-duty vehicle.By 28 February each year, from the starting years set out in point 1 of Part B of Annex I, manufacturers of heavy-duty vehicles shall report those data for each new heavy-duty vehicle with a date of simulation falling within the preceding calendar year to the Commission in accordance with the reporting procedure set out in Annex II.The date of simulation shall be the date reported in accordance with data entry 71 in point 2 of Part B of Annex I.2.Each manufacturer shall appoint a contact point for the purpose of reporting data in accordance with this Regulation.
Article 6Central Register for data on heavy-duty vehicles1.The Commission shall keep a Central Register for the data on heavy-duty vehicles ("the Register") reported in accordance with Articles 4 and 5.The Register shall be publicly available with the exception of data entry (a) specified in Part A of Annex I and data entries 1, 24, 25, 32, 33, 39 and 40 specified in point 2 of Part B of Annex I. With regard to data entry 23 specified in point 2 of Part B of Annex I, the value shall be made publicly available in a range format as set out in Part C of Annex I.2.The Register shall be managed by the European Environment Agency on behalf of the Commission.
Article 7Monitoring of the results of on-road verification tests1.The Commission shall monitor, where available, the results of on-road tests performed within the framework of Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 to verify the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of new heavy-duty vehicles.2.The Commission is empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 13 in order to supplement this Regulation by specifying the data to be reported by the competent authorities of the Member States for the purposes of paragraph 1 of this Article.
Article 8Data quality1.The competent authorities and manufacturers shall be responsible for the correctness and quality of the data they report pursuant to Articles 4 and 5. They shall inform the Commission without delay of any errors detected in the data reported.2.The Commission shall carry out its own verification of the quality of the data reported pursuant to Articles 4 and 5.3.Where the Commission is informed of errors in the data or finds, pursuant to its own verification, discrepancies in the dataset, it shall, where appropriate, take the necessary measures to correct the data published in the Register referred to in Article 6.4.The Commission may, by means of implementing acts, determine the verification and correction measures referred to in paragraphs 2 and 3 of this Article. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 12.
Article 9Administrative fines1.The Commission may impose an administrative fine in each of the following cases:(a)where it finds that the data reported by the manufacturer pursuant to Article 5 of this Regulation deviate from the data resulting from the manufacturer’s records file or the engine type-approval certificate issued within the framework of Regulation (EC) No 595/2009, and the deviation is intentional or due to serious negligence;(b)where the data are not submitted within the deadline applicable pursuant to Article 5(1) and the delay cannot be duly justified.The Commission shall, for the purposes of verifying the data referred to in point (a), consult with the relevant approval authorities.The administrative fines shall be effective, proportional and dissuasive and shall not exceed EUR 30000 per heavy-duty vehicle concerned by deviating or delayed data as referred to in points (a) and (b).2.The Commission shall, on the basis of the principles set out in paragraph 3 of this Article, adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 13 to supplement this Regulation by laying down the procedure, methods for the calculation and collection of the administrative fines referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article.3.The delegated acts referred to in paragraph 2 shall respect the following principles:(a)the procedure established by the Commission shall respect the right to good administration, and in particular the right to be heard and the right to have access to the file, while respecting the legitimate interests of confidentiality and of commercial secrets;(b)in calculating the appropriate administrative fine, the Commission shall be guided by the principles of effectiveness, proportionality and dissuasiveness, taking into consideration, where relevant, the seriousness and effects of the deviation or delay, the number of heavy-duty vehicles concerned by the deviating or delayed data, the good faith of the manufacturer, the degree of diligence and cooperation of the manufacturer, the repetition, frequency or duration of the deviation or the delay as well as prior sanctions imposed on the same manufacturer;(c)administrative fines shall be collected without undue delay by fixing deadlines for the payment and, as appropriate, including the possibility of splitting payments into several instalments and phases.4.The amounts of the administrative fines shall be considered as revenue for the general budget of the Union.
Article 10Report1.By 31 October every year, the Commission shall publish an annual report with its analysis of the data transmitted by Member States and manufacturers for the preceding calendar year.2.The analysis shall indicate, as a minimum, the performance of the heavy-duty vehicle fleet of the Union as well as that of each Member State and each manufacturer in terms of the average fuel consumption and CO2 emissions for each heavy-duty vehicle group by mission profile, load and fuel combination. It shall also, where available, take into account data on the uptake of new and advanced CO2 reducing technologies, as well as of alternative powertrains. Moreover, it shall include an analysis of, where available, the results of on-road verification tests as monitored in accordance with Article 7.3.The Commission shall prepare the analysis with the support of the European Environment Agency.
