EU delays methane rules on oil and gas imports for a year
The European Union has postponed by one year the application of its methane emission rules covering oil and gas imports. Under the regulation, importers would eventually have to prove that foreign suppliers meet EU standards on limiting methane leaks from oil and gas production. The delay pushes back the compliance deadline for exporting countries and companies, drawing attention from energy producers and climate advocates watching how strictly Brussels enforces its green rules.
Why now: The postponement affects global energy exporters and is being read as a sign of softening EU climate enforcement.
