2011/878/EU: Commission Implementing Decision of 20 December 2011 confirming the provisional calculation of average specific CO 2 emissions and specific emissions targets for manufacturers of passenger cars for the calendar year 2010 pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 443/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council Text with EEA relevance

Article 1

The following values specified in the Annex are confirmed for each manufacturer of passenger cars and for each pool of manufacturers in respect of the 2010 calendar year:

• (a) the specific emissions target;

• (b) the average specific emissions of CO2, where appropriate adjusted by the relevant error margin;

• (c) the difference between the values referred to in points (a) and (b);

• (d) the average specific emissions of CO2 for all new passenger cars;

• (e) the average mass for all new passenger cars in the Union.

Article 2

This Decision shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

ANNEX

Table 1

Values relating to the performance of manufacturers confirmed in accordance with Article 10(1) of Regulation (EC) No 443/2009

Explanatory notes to Table 1:

Column B

‘D’ means that a derogation relating to a small volume manufacturer has been granted in accordance with Commission Implementing Decision C(2011) 8334 final;

‘ND’ means that a derogation relating to niche manufacturer has been granted in accordance with Commission Implementing Decision C(2011) 8336 final;

‘P’ means that the manufacturer is member of a pool (listed in table 2) formed in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 443/2009.

Column D

‘Average specific emissions (65 %) corrected’ means the average specific emissions of CO2 calculated in accordance with the first indent of the second subparagraph of Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 443/2009 and section 4 of Commission Communication COM(2010) 657 based on the corrections notified to the Commission by the manufacturer concerned. That figure considers all vehicles with both a valid value for mass and CO2 emissions, including vehicles that cannot be verified by the manufacturers.

Column E

‘Specific emissions target’ means the emission target based on the average mass of all vehicles attributed to a manufacturer (100 % of all vehicles to be taken into account from 2015 onwards) after applying the formula set out in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 443/2009.

Column F

‘Distance to target’ means the difference between the values in column D and column E.

Column G

‘Distance to target adjusted’ means the distance to target as indicated under Column F adjusted to take into account the error margin. The error is due to the unidentifiable vehicles (vehicles where the identification code for type, variant and version is missing) and it is calculated in accordance with the following formula:

Error = absolute value of [(AC1 – TG1) – (AC2 – TG2)]
