EU proposes one-year delay for methane importer rules
Original: EU Methane Regulation: Commission proposes one-year postponement of key importer obligations
The European Commission has proposed a one-year postponement of key obligations under the EU Methane Regulation for importers of oil, gas and coal. Under the proposal, companies bringing fossil fuels into the EU would have more time before they must demonstrate that their supplies meet the bloc's methane emissions standards. The delay affects compliance duties that were part of the regulation's phased rollout, and industry and trading partners will be watching how the legislative process unfolds.
Why now: The postponement affects energy importers and trading partners preparing for the regulation's compliance deadlines, prompting close attention from industry and policymakers.
