EC call for evidence on proposed amendments to Taxonomy Delegated Acts

The European Commission (EC) has published calls for evidence on proposals to amend two Delegated Regulations: the Taxonomy Climate Delegated Act and the Taxonomy Environmental Delegated Act. The Taxonomy Climate and Environmental Delegated Acts, adopted respectively in 2021 and 2023, specify the technical screening criteria for activities contributing to the six EU climate and environmental objectives including climate change mitigation, climate change adaptation, sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources, circular economy, pollution prevention and control and biodiversity. The proposed amendments aim to simplify, clarify and enhance usability of these criteria. This initiative forms part of the EC's broader effort to reduce reporting burdens for companies and support sustainable finance through clearer and more proportionate rules. The deadline for comments on both proposals is December 5.
