Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(5) In order to achieve the 2040 climate target it is essential to, inter alia, fully implement the agreed 2030 framework, ensure and provide support to the competitiveness and resilience of the European industry, ensure transition pathways based on best available cost-effective, safe and scalable technologies, set a greater focus on a just transition that leaves no one behind, ensure fair competition with international partners, decarbonise the energy system with all zero and low carbon energy solutions (including renewables, nuclear, energy efficiency, storage, CCS, CCU, carbon removals, geothermal and hydro-energy, and all other current and future net-zero energy technologies), and organise a strategic dialogue on the post-2030 framework with all relevant sectors. With the Clean Industrial Deal, the EU is putting in place the conditions for a successful transition, focussing on both decarbonisation and industrial renewal, including support mechanisms for Europeanindustry, better access to public and private finance, a global level playing field, and clear enabling conditions for the uptake and scaling of clean technologies, in order to strengthen industrial competitiveness and innovation in the EU.

(5) In order to achieve the 2040 climate target it is essential to, inter alia, fully implement the agreed 2030 policyframework, ensure and provide support to enhance and bolsterthe competitiveness and resilience of the European industry, ensure sustainable food systems as well as the resilience of rural communities and food security through a sustainable and robust European agricultural sector, ensure transition pathways based on best available cost-effective, safe and scalable technologies, andset a greater focus on a just transition for affected regions, sectors and vulnerable householdsthat leaves no one behind, for example through support from the Social Climate Fund in the transition to climate neutrality. Further, it is essential toensure fair competition with international partners, and to make effective use of all EU economic instruments to deter and counter unfair trade practices,decarbonise the energy system with a technologically neutral approach that includesall zero and low carbon energy solutions (including renewables, nuclear, energy efficiency, storage, CCS, CCU, carbon removals, geothermal and hydro-energy, sustainable bioenergyand all other current and future net-zero energy technologies), reduce import dependencies and diversify the EU's sources of critical raw materials, and organise a strategic dialogue on the post-2030 framework with all relevant sectors, including industry and transport.

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(5a) In its conclusions of 23 October 2025, the European Council stated that enhancing the Union's competitiveness, bolstering its resilience, and advancing the green transition are mutually reinforcing objectives that must be pursued together, and called for an urgent stepping up of efforts to secure the supply of affordable and clean energy and build a genuine Energy Union before 2030, including by leveraging the new Energy Union Task Force, as well as for accelerating work aimed at lowering energy prices and supporting sustainable energy production domestically in the Union. With a view to ensuring a cost-effective, fair and just, pragmatic and socially balanced transition towards climate neutrality, taking into account different national circumstances, both private and public sector investment, including through Union funding, will be a key enabler for the clean transition, for example by supporting and accelerating the deployment and commercialisation of innovative technologies across Member States, supporting access to industrial renewal and decarbonisation, clean tech manufacturing and the modernisation of energy systems as well as providing affordable solutions across the economy and for citizens throughout the Union. The Clean Industrial Deal is putting in place the conditions for a successful transition, focussing on both decarbonisation and industrial renewal, which will contribute to boosting demand for 'made in Europe', and support mechanisms for European industry, including the Industrial Decarbonisation Bank and the new simplified state aid framework.

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(5aa) Furthermore, the European Council also recalled in its conclusions of 23 October 2025 the urgent need to intensify collective efforts to ensure Europe's industrial renewal, modernisation and decarbonisation in a technologically neutral manner. It underlined in this context that particular attention should be paid to traditional industries, notably the automotive, shipping, and aviation industries as well as energy-intensive industries, such as steel and metals, chemicals, cement, glass and ceramics, and pulp and paper, so that they remain resilient and competitive in a global market and a challenging geopolitical environment. In this regard, it welcomed the recent Commission proposal to protect the European steel sector from unfair impacts of global overcapacity. It also welcomed the Commission's intention to take forward the review foreseen under the Regulation on CO2 emissions performance standards for cars and vans, and it called for the swift presentation of this proposal, taking into account technological neutrality and European content. In this context, the European Council also welcomed the recent letter from the President of the Commission on climate and competitiveness.

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(5b) The Clean Industrial Deal also focuses on better access to public and private finance, an integrated and interconnected Union energy market ensuring energy security, promotion of circular economy, a global level playing field including through the effective implementation and extension of CBAM to downstream goods, introducing anti-circumvention measures and action to address export carbon leakage, and clear enabling conditions such as streamlined permitting and the uptake and scaling of clean technologies, in order to strengthen the Union's competitive edge and industrial competitiveness as well as innovation in the EU taking into account the challenging geopolitical environment.

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(7) Priority should be given to domestic reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, complementing it by increased removals, including through both natural and technological solutions. In the development of the post-2030 policy package, due attention should be paid to the contribution of gross emission reductions versus natural and technological removals. Nature-basedand industrial removals play an increasing role in the Union's economy in the next decades, in view of the need to balance greenhouse gas emissions and removals at the latest by 2050 and negative emissions thereafter. Incentives will be developed on the occasionof the review of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council7in 2026, where the Commission envisages to provide for domestic permanent carbon removals in the system for greenhouse gas emission allowancetrading within the Union('EU ETS') to compensate for residual emissions fromhard to abate sectors.

(7) Priority should be given to domestic reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, complementing it by increased removals, including through both natural and technological solutions. In the development of the post-2030 policy package, due attention should be paid to the contribution of gross emission reductions versus natural and technological removals. Natural removals have characteristics that should be taken into account, such as forest age structure, proportion of organic soils, natural variability, and uncertainties related to the impacts of climate change, to natural disturbances and to changes in methodologies. Naturaland industrial removals play an increasing role in the Union's economy in the next decades, in view of the need to balance greenhouse gas emissions and removals at the latest by 2050 and negative emissions thereafter. Incentives will be developed in the contextof the review of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council7 in 2026, where the Commission envisages to provide for the inclusion ofdomestic permanent carbon removals in the EU emissionstrading system('EU ETS') to compensate for residual hard to abate emissions. The land use, land use change and forestry sector has a central role in a sustainable and circular bioeconomy and has the potential to provide long-term climate and environmental benefits contributing to the clean transition of the EU economy and reducing dependencies by substituting fossil-based materials.

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(7a) While some enabling policies have already been implemented and their impact is already visible, this is not yet the case for all. The Commission should continue to strengthen the initiatives concerning the enabling framework and aim to accelerate their adoption to ensure that conditions are in place to support European industry and citizens throughout the transition, in full respect of Union law.

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(8) The Union has in place a regulatory framework to achieve the 2030 climate target. The legislation implementing that target consists, inter alia, of Directive 2003/87/EC, which establishes the EU ETS, Regulation (EU) 2018/842 of the European Parliament and of the Council8, which introduced national targets for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, and Regulation (EU) 2018/841 of the European Parliament and of the Council9, which sets net carbon removal targets for the land use sector. The Commission should assess how the relevant Union legislation would need to be amended in order to achieve the 2040 climate target. When designing the future architecture, the Commission should prepare detailed impact assessments, including the impacts on competitiveness andsmall and mediumenterprises, and consider taking necessary measures, including legislative proposals as appropriate. A number of elements to facilitate the achievement of the 2040 target should be appropriately reflected, including a potential limited contribution towards the 2040 target of high-quality international credits under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, in the second part of the 2030-2040 decade, in line with accounting rules of the Paris Agreement; the role of domestic permanent removals (Biogenic emissions Capture with Carbon Storage (BioCCS) and Direct Air Capture with Carbon Storage (DACCS)) in the EU ETS; enhanced flexibility across sectors. In order to assess the social, economic and environmental impacts, the future architecture should be based on robust impact assessments. The future architecture should also foster convergence while taking into account fairness and Member States' specificities, including those of islands and outermost regions.

(8) The Union has in place a regulatory framework to achieve the 2030 climate target. The legislation implementing that target consists, inter alia, of Directive 2003/87/EC, which establishes the EU ETS, Regulation (EU) 2018/842 of the European Parliament and of the Council8 , which introduced national targets for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, and Regulation (EU) 2018/841 of the European Parliament and of the Council9, which sets net carbon removal targets for the land use sector. In order to ensure a smooth transition to the EU ETS2, the application of Article 30(k)(2) letters (a) to (e) of Directive 2003/87/EC should be postponed of one year.The Commission should assess how the relevant Union legislation would need to be amended in order to achieve the 2040 climate target, also taking into account declining natural sink capacity. When designing the post-2030 framework, the Commission should prepare detailed impact assessments, taking into account its analysis of the integrated national energy and climate plans, the geopolitical environment,including the need to ensure the Union's and its Member States' capacity to rapidly increase and strengthen their defensive capacity by addressing possible burdens while maintaining incentives for industrial decarbonisation,the impacts on competitiveness, onsmall and medium-sizedenterprises and energy intensive industries, and impacts on energy costs and investment needs across Member States, and consider taking necessary measures, including legislative proposals as appropriate.

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(8a) A number of elements to facilitate the achievement of the 2040 climate target should be appropriately reflected, including an adequate contribution towards the 2040 climate target of high-quality international credits under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, in the second part of the 2031-2040 decade, in a way that is both ambitious and cost-efficient and in line with accounting rules of the Paris Agreement, including a pilot period to initiate a high-quality and high-integrity international credit market for the period 2031-2035; the role of domestic permanent removals (such as Biogenic emissions Capture with Carbon Storage (BioCCS) and Direct Air Capture with Carbon Storage (DACCS)) in the EU ETS while ensuring the environmental integrity of the EU ETS, including the possibility to store CO2 outside the Union, as appropriate, subject to the existence of international agreements and providing for conditions equivalent to those laid out in Union law; and enhanced and accessible flexibility across and within sectors and instruments to support a cost-effective approach whereby for example Member States' achievements in one sector can balance gaps in others in a cost-efficient way while ensuring that each sector contributes to the efforts and ensuring that possible shortfalls in one sector would not be at the expense of other economic sectors, without prejudice to each Member State's possibility to make use of the flexibilities. In operationalising the use of international credits, the Commission should take into account the need to ensure a level playing field across Member States and the opportunity to support strategic EU partnerships. International credits should not play a role for compliance in the EU ETS. The current EU ETS trajectory should be revised in the upcoming review of the ETS Directive to take into account the agreed 2040 target in a manner that would allow for a limited amount of emissions after 2039. The Commission should timely consider a slower phase-out pathway for free allocation of allowances from 2028 onwards to support decarbonisation, investment and employment in Europe, including through the Industrial Decarbonisation Bank and a review of the Market Stability Reserve, while minimising the risk of carbon leakage. In order to assess the social, economic and environmental impacts, the post-2030 framework should be based on robust impact assessments. The post-2030 framework should also foster convergence while taking into account fairness and Member States' national circumstances and specificities, including those of islands, island Member States and outermost regions.

(4) In order to propose the Union 2040 climate target, the Commission considered the best available and most recent scientific evidence, including the latest reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the Advisory Board; the social, economic and environmental impacts, including the costs of inaction; the need to ensure a just and socially fair transition for all; cost-effectiveness and economic efficiency; competitiveness of the Union's economy, in particular small and medium-sized enterprises and sectors most exposed to carbon leakage; best available cost-effective, safe and scalable technologies; energy efficiency and the 'energy efficiency first' principle,energy affordability and security of supply; fairness and solidarity between and within Member States; the need to ensure environmental effectiveness and progression over time; the need to maintain, manage and enhance natural sinks in the long term and protect and restore biodiversity, including in the marine environment; investment needs and opportunities; international developments and efforts undertaken to achieve the long-term objectives of the Paris Agreement and the ultimate objective of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC); existing information on the projected indicative Union greenhouse gas budget for the 2030-2050 period.

(4) In order to propose the Union 2040 climate target, the Commission considered the best available and most recent scientific evidence, including the latest reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the Advisory Board; the social, economic and environmental impacts, including the costs of inaction, especially acknowledging that, according to the report by the European Environment Agency of 26 June 2025 entitled 'Renewables, electrification and flexibility for a competitive EU energy system transformation by 2030', in 2022 the Union imported 98% of its oil and gas and that high energy prices undermine competitiveness and increase the cost of living for citizens; the need to ensure a just and socially fair transition for all; cost-effectiveness and economic efficiency; principles of free market andcompetitiveness of the Union's economy, in particular small and medium-sized enterprises mid-caps, and start-ups notably to avoid disproportionate administrative burden while enabling opportunities of the clean transitionand sectors most exposed to carbon leakage; best available cost-effective, safe and scalable technologies; energy efficiency and the 'energy efficiency first' principle energy affordability and security of supply; fairness and solidarity between and within Member States; the need to adapt to climate changethe need to ensure environmental effectiveness and progression over time; the need to maintain, manage and enhance natural sinks in the long term and protect and restore biodiversity, including in the marine environment; investment needs and opportunities; international developments and efforts undertaken to achieve the long-term objectives of the Paris Agreement and the ultimate objective of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC); existing information on the projected indicative Union greenhouse gas budget for the 2030-2050 period.

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(5) In order to achieve the 2040 climate target it is essential to, inter alia, fully implement the agreed 2030 framework, ensure and provide support to the competitiveness and resilience of the European industry, ensure transition pathways based on best available cost-effective, safe and scalable technologies, set a greater focus on a just transition that leaves no one behind, ensure fair competition with international partners, decarbonise the energy system with all zero and low carbon energy solutions (including renewables, nuclear, energy efficiency, storage, CCS, CCU, carbon removals, geothermal and hydro-energy, and all other current and future net-zero

energytechnologies),and organise a strategic dialogue on the post-2030 framework with all relevant sectors. With the Clean Industrial Deal, the EU is putting in place the conditions for a successful transition, focussing on both decarbonisation and industrial renewal, including support mechanisms for European industry, better access to public and private finance, a global level playing field, and clear enabling conditions for the uptake and scaling of clean technologies, in order to strengthen industrial competitiveness and innovation in the EU.

(5) In order to achieve the 2040 climate target it is essential to, inter alia, fully implement the agreed 2030 framework, predictability and regulatory certainty for investors; boost electrification as it is the key driver for decarbonisation, ensure a well-functioning electricity grid requiring significant expansion and modernisation of grids and interconnectors, enhance energy efficiency efforts as energy savings, in line with the Commission communication of 18 May 2022 entitled 'REPowerEU Plan', is the cheapest and quickest way to reduce emissions;ensure and provide support to strengthenthe competitiveness and resilience of the European industry, ensure transition pathways based on best available cost-effective, safe and rapidlyscalable technologies, set a greater focus on a just transition that leaves no one behind, ensure fair competition with international partners, decarbonise the energy system with all zero and low carbon energy solutions (including renewables, nuclear, energy efficiency, storage, CCS, CCU, carbon removals, geothermal and hydro-energy, and all other current and future net-zero energy), and organise a strategic dialogue on the post-2030 framework with all relevant sectors. With the Clean Industrial Deal, the EU is putting in place the conditions for a successful transition, focussing on both decarbonisation and industrial renewal, including support mechanisms for European industry and their business case accompanied by proposed measures under Clean Industrial Deal, circular economy, better access to public and private finance, a global level playing field covering efficient application of the CBAM and measures to tackle risks of carbon leakage in exports, and clear enabling conditions for the uptake and scaling of clean technologies, including through the creation of lead marketsin order to strengthen industrial competitiveness and innovation in the EU while acknowledging the current geopolitical situation.

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(7) Priority should be given to domestic reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, complementing it by increased removals, including through both natural and technological solutions. In the development of the post-2030 policy package, due attention should be paid to the contribution of gross emission reductions versus natural and technological removals. Nature-based and industrial removals play an increasing role in the Union's economy in the next decades, in view of the need to balance greenhouse gas emissions and removals at the latest by 2050 and negative emissions thereafter. Incentives will be developed on the occasion of the review of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council7in 2026, where the Commission envisages to provide for domestic permanent carbon removals in the system for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Union ('EU ETS') to compensate for residual emissions from hard to abate sectors.

(7) Priority should be given to domestic reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, complementing it by increased domesticremovals and biogenic sequestration, including through both natural and technological solutions. The land-use, land-use change and forestry sector plays a significant role in a sustainable and circular bioeconomy by providing long-term climate benefits, supporting the EU's clean transition, and reducing dependence on fossil based raw materials, in the future taking into account its substitution effects. In the development of the post-2030 policy package, due attention should be paid to the contribution of gross emission reductions versus natural and technological removals. With respect to natural sinks, their yearly variability, the effects of climate change, the uncertainties stemming from environmental changes, the impact of wood harvest, the absence of commensurability between Member States, and the considerable difficulties in calculation and monitoring should be considered. Nature-based and industrial removals play an increasing role in the Union's economy in the next decades, in view of the need to balance greenhouse gas emissions and removals at the latest by 2050 and negative emissions thereafter. Incentives will be developed on the occasion of the review of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council7in 2026, where the Commission envisages to provide for domestic permanent carbon removals in the system for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Union ('EU ETS') to compensate for residual emissions from hard to abate sectors without undermining the integrity of EU ETS.

Amendment

(8) The Union has in place a regulatory framework to achieve the 2030 climate target. The legislation implementing that target consists, inter alia, of Directive 2003/87/EC, which establishes the EU ETS, Regulation (EU) 2018/842 of the European Parliament and of the Council8, which introduced national targets for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, and Regulation (EU) 2018/841 of the European Parliament and of the Council9, which sets net carbon removal targets for the land use sector. The Commission should assess how the relevant Union legislation would need to be amended in order to achieve the 2040 climate target. When designing the future architecture, the Commission should prepare detailed impact assessments, including the impacts on competitiveness and small and medium enterprises, and consider taking necessary measures, including legislative proposals as appropriate. A number of elements to facilitate the achievement of the 2040 target should be appropriately reflected, including a potential limited contribution towards the 2040 target of high-quality international credits under Article 6of the Paris Agreement, in the second part of the 2030-2040 decade, in line with accounting rules of the Paris Agreement; the role of domestic permanent removals (Biogenic emissions Capture with Carbon Storage (BioCCS) and Direct Air Capture with Carbon Storage (DACCS)) inthe EU ETS; enhanced flexibility across sectors. In order to assess the social, economic and environmental impacts, the future architecture should be based on robust impact assessments. The future architecture should also foster convergence while taking into account fairness and Member States' specificities, including those of islands and outermost regions.
