Recital 36

(36) In order to boost the underdeveloped markets for secondary raw materials, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 TFEU should be delegated to the Commission in respect of establishing a minimum share of magnesium and its alloys, neodymium, dysprosium, praseodymium, terbium, samarium, nickel, cobalt or boron recycled from post-consumer waste that shall be present in and incorporated into the vehicle types. In order to supplement certain non-essential elements of this Regulation, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 TFEU should be delegated to the Commission to establish methodology for the calculation and verification of the shares of those materials recycled from post-consumer, and where relevant, pre-consumer waste in vehicle types. The methodology is necessary to clarify the definitions of post-consumer scrap and pre-consumer scrap. This is relevant to incentivise the improvement of quality and the retainment of value for post-consumer waste fractions. In order to promote decarbonisation via the use of more recycled content, clear definitions are necessary to incentivise the recycling of post-consumer scrap, while minimising the use of pre-consumer scrap, which usually carries the same carbon footprint as the primary raw material.
