03/12/2025 (Agence Europe) – The European Parliament’s Committees on Transport and Tourism (TRAN) and Environment (ENVI) have approved, by 81 votes to 13, the provisional agreement with the Council of the EU on a single EU-wide methodology for calculating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from transport services (see EUROPE 13747/4). Under the agreement, transport companies will not be obliged to calculate their GHG emissions. However, if they choose to do so, for example for reporting, contractual or marketing purposes, or where required by other European rules, they will be obliged to apply this method. The agreement must now be approved by the Council of the EU before it can be put to a vote by the full Parliament. Read the agreement: https://aeur.eu/f/jts (AD)
