Key points

The regulation aims to standardize how greenhouse gas emissions are measured in the transport sector across the EU.
The calculation methodology is based on the international ISO 14083:2023 standard.
Transport companies are expected to prioritize using direct, real-world measurements (primary data), though small businesses can use estimated values (secondary data).
The Commission will establish a central EU database of default values to help companies that cannot provide their own specific data.
