Delegated regulation to simplify EU taxonomy reporting and screening criteria published in OJ

Commission Delegated Regulation 2026/73 has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJ). The Delegated Regulation, adopted on 4 July, amends Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 to simplify reporting requirements for environmentally sustainable activities under the EU Taxonomy Regulation. It also amends Delegated Regulations 2021/2139 and 2023/2486 to simplify certain technical screening criteria for determining whether economic activities cause no significant harm to environmental objectives. These include materiality-based exemptions, reduced and simplified key performance indicators and streamlined reporting templates. The Regulation enters into force on the twentieth day following publication in the OJ, applying from 1 January. Undertakings may, however, apply Delegated Regulations (EU) 2021/2178, (EU) 2021/2139 and (EU) 2023/2486 as applicable on 31 December 2025 for the financial year that starts between 1 January and 31 December 2025.
