Description
Draft report
On 8 January 2025, the Platform on Sustainable Finance published a draft report on preliminary recommendations for the review of the Climate Delegated Act and the addition of activities to the EU taxonomy.
The draft report was prepared by the dedicated Platform subgroup, the Technical Working Group (TWG). It is a deliverable in accordance with the Platform’s mandate under the Taxonomy Regulation to advise the Commission on the technical screening criteria as well as on the possible need to update those criteria.
The draft report is a working document with preliminary recommendations on the technical screening criteria that do not represent a final view of the Platform. It is neither an official Commission document nor an official Commission position. Nothing in this document commits the Commission nor does it preclude any policy outcomes.
The draft report presents a set of recommendations for revision of technical screening criteria of activities included in the Taxonomy Climate Delegated Act and for addition of new activities to the EU taxonomy.
Based on the resources, workload and time available, the Platform TWG could not finalise its recommendations on all activities that were mandated by the Commission. For these activities, the TWG included progress reports in the preliminary report.
In this context, it is important to note that the non-inclusion of an activity in the TWG report does not imply that the activity will not be considered for inclusion in the EU taxonomy.
Call for feedback
The Platform is inviting stakeholders to provide feedback on the draft report through a call for feedback, which will run from 8 January to 5 February 2025 23:59 CET time.
This call for feedback is part of ongoing work by the Platform, which was set up by the Commission to provide advice on the further development of the EU taxonomy.
The call for feedback represents an opportunity to gather feedback and evidence from a wider set of stakeholders, to improve the draft criteria and make them more robust and usable.
This feedback process is not an official Commission consultation.
