Recital 9

Directive (EU) 2023/958 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 10 May 2023 amending Directive 2003/87/EC as regards aviation’s contribution to the Union’s economy-wide emission reduction target and the appropriate implementation of a global market-based measure (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

(9) Amendments introduced by this Directive are essential to ensuring the integrity of the EU ETS and effectively steering the EU ETS in order for it to contribute, as a policy tool, to achieving the Union’s objectives of reducing net greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55 % by 2030 and becoming climate-neutral by 2050, at the latest, as well as the aim of achieving negative emissions thereafter as laid down in Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) 2021/1119. Those amendments are therefore also aimed at the implementation of the Union’s contributions under the Paris Agreement as regards aviation. Therefore, the total quantity of allowances for aviation should be consolidated and subject to the linear reduction factor as referred to in Article 9 of Directive 2003/87/EC.
