1.5.2. Added value of Union involvement (it may result from different factors, e.g. coordination gains, legal certainty, greater effectiveness or complementarities). For the purposes of this point 'added value of Union involvement' is the value resulting from Union intervention, which is additional to the value that would have been otherwise created by Member States alone.

Reasons for action at European level (ex-ante):

Modernising the current ELV Directive adopted more than 20 years ago is necessary to ensure that manufacturers, importers and economic operators are incentivised to the objectives of the Green Deal and put in position to contribute tot the Circular Economy Action plan.

The evaluations of these Directives have shown that considerable improvements were needed to boost the transition of the automotive sector to a circular economy, thereby reducing the environmental footprint linked to the production and end-of-life treatment of vehicles, and strengthening the sustainability of the automotive and recycling industry in Europe.

As the automotive sector is undergoing a massive transformation with the shift to electric vehicles, this means main share of the environmental footprint of vehicles will shift from the use-phase to the production and recycling stages, and that important supplies of critical raw materials (CRMs) will be required.

Expected generated Union added value (ex-post):

This action reduces the resulting increased vulnerability of the EU industry supply chains, especially for critical raw materials essential for the EU’s strategic autonomy. At the same time, improving quality of collection and treatment facilitates improved uptakes of recycled materials supporting the transition to a carbon-neutral economy by up to 14 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent per year in 2040.

The added value of an EU approach in the form of a single Regulation is that it ensures consistency in the requirement set at design and production of vehicles under the type-approval umbrella with the requirements at the collection and waste stages. Improved synchronisation is needed to ensure retainment of both economic and environmental quality of parts, components and materials from reuse, remanufacturing and recycling.

1.5.3. Lessons learned from similar experiences in the past

This Regulation follows the example of the Battery Regulation that is providing a comprehensive framework for improving circularity of batteries. Several provisions are complementing the sustainability requirements for EV batteries forming the largest future subsector under the Battery Regulation. It further specifies in this sectoral waste legislation, fully to be embedded in the type-approval framework, the detailed needs for improved design, production and recovery of critical and strategic raw materials as addressed by the recently adopted CRM act, notably for permanent magnet materials in e-drive motors for vehicles.

1.5.4. Compatibility with the Multiannual Financial Framework and possible synergies with other appropriate instruments

The European Commission is proposing a major recovery plan based on a reinforced long term budget for the next Multiannual Financial Framework and a new recovery instrument, Next Generation EU.

The European Green Deal will be the basis of the EU's recovery strategy. This includes the objective of cleaner transport and logistics, including e-mobility, which are the main driver of the exponential growth of demand for batteries, e-drive motors and many other CRMs and strategic raw materials, including their embedded energy of production.

The objectives of this regulation are supported by the Multiannual Financial Framework and the Next Generation EU, which both place an important emphasis on funding and investments to support the transition of the European economy to climate-neutral and circular models. This includes investments to modernise waste management, increase capacity for recycling for specific waste streams and promote high quality recycling and innovation.

Circular economy is also embedded in the matrix of the Horizon Europe programme on research, notably its partnership on circularity and is one of the pillars of the Programme for the environment and climate action (LIFE) 2021–2027. These will be essential to ensure the sustainable competitiveness of Europe in this field as well as to boost its economy, growth and well-being. It is expected that the EU will continue to promote the research in this and in related fields in the next MFF.

1.5.5. Assessment of the different available financing options, including scope for redeployment

For streamlining and improving consistency in the assessment of substance restrictions, the expertise of ECHA (risk assessments of substances) and JRC (development of methodologies and procedures) would be the most appropriate to ensure consistency in the implementation of the proposed approach in relation to related files like like EPSR, Batteries and the CRM act similary calling upon their expertise.

As far as the JRC is concerned, work could build on previous JRC research for the impacts assessment of recycled content targets and verification rules for recycling rates of batteries and ongoing activities by the JRC for ESPR as well as activities of the JRC for DG GROW on future policy measures for CRMs (0.837 M EUR). The JRC will consider how best to synergise and support the work in cooperation with ENV and GROW.

For the development of the IT system and data exchanges for customs controls, the staff and resource needs in DG TAXUD and DG MOVE are related to the MOVEHUB digitalisation of vehicle registration information and reflect the ambition to restrict the export of low-quality non-roadworthy vehicles to third countries to tackle the persistent problem of unknown whereabouts of vehicles. In the long term, this IT development supports further digitalisation of vehicle registration information under consideration for the ongoing revision of the DG MOVE Directives on the matter planned for adoption later in 2023.

For the circularity strategy, criteria for the Circularity Vehicle Passport as well as EPR related requirements, external contractors are best positioned to provide the necessary technical support (0.500 M EUR by DG GROW). The same counts for support studies for treatment requirements, the functioning of the markets for spare parts), the preparation for reviewing substance restriction exemptions (0.075 M EUR) and the foreseen phased-in approach for the scope extension (0.575 M EUR by DG ENV for 2024-2027)

DG GROW has estimated that the development of the updated methodology for the 3R rates, the removability criteria for batteries and e-drive motors and the electronic information exchange for the proposed Vehicle Circularity Passport require respectively (0.250, 0.250 M EUR).

Some additional resources will be needed in the period 2028-2033 to progress with work after the end of the current MFF in 2027: for DG GROW, a total amount is scheduled for the period from 2028 until full implementation around 2032 of 0.150 M EUR for technical studies.


The amount reported above would also be needed to finance the relevant share of the administrative arrangements, to be discussed between DG ENV/DG GROW and the JRC and for the procurement of studies and data related to DG GROW provisions (updated methodology for the 3R rates, the removability criteria for batteries and e-drive motors and the electronic information exchange for the proposed Vehicle Circularity Passport). Significant synergies would be taken into account with the ongoing policy support by the JRC for the CRM Act.

DG ENV has estimated the need for technical support studies (from 2024 until 2031) for plastic recycled content and chemical recycling prospects (0.100 M EUR), the study for determining steel recycled content target levels (0.100 M EUR), the wider feasibility study for CRMs, aluminium and magnesium recycled content (0.100 M EUR in 2027), criteria for EPR fee modulation (0.050 M EUR), quality requirements for PST technologies (0.050 M EUR), cross-border EPR cooperation mechanism (0.100 M EUR), the preparation for reviewing substance restriction exemptions (0.075 M EUR) and rules for calculating and verification of recycling performance totalling (0.575 M EUR) for the period 2024 – 2027.

The JRC is likely to play an important role in supporting the Commission with some of the technical work required as mentioned above for developing recycled content specification, removability of batteries and CRM rich e-drive motors and the calculation and verification rules related to treatment. A possible administrative arrangement may cover the estimated needs (0.837 M EUR for 2024-2027), while maximising synergies with related tasks under the CRM Act, ESPR, SuP and PPWR proposals.

Co-delegation is applied from DG ENV to DG TAXUD and DG MOVE to digitalise vehicle registration information by extending IT systems to create interoperability of vehicle registers digitalisation and as a second step to establish real-time export controls by linking to the Customs Single Window system for the period 2024 -2027.

Some additional resources will be needed in the period 2028-2033 to progress with work after the end of the current MFF in 2027:

(c) For DG ENV, a total amount is scheduled for the period from 2028 until full implementation around 2032 of 0.550 M EUR in technical studies.

(d) For DG TAXUD, a total amount is scheduled for the period from 2028 until full implementation around 2032 of 0.500 M EUR for IT deployment.

(e) Resources for JRC in the form of a possible additional administrative arrangements for a total amount of 0.335 M EUR for 2028 - 2032.
