Letter to Climate Commissioner on Fuel Quality Directive Implementation

March 24, 2010

We write to express deep concerns about the implementation of the Fuel Quality Directive, and to provide some specific suggestions for improvement.

We are worried that the draft implementing provisions regarding Article 7a, which sets a greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction target for transport fuel, undermine the whole purpose of this landmark piece of legislation and therefore put its future in jeopardy.
