15.1.2015 Official Journal of the European Union L9/1 II (Non-legislative acts) REGULATIONS COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2015/45 of 14 January 2015 amending Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Commission Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 as regards innovative technologies for reducing CO, emissions from light commercial vehicles (Text with EEA relevance) THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION, Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2007 on type approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles (Euro 5 and Euro 6) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information (*), and in particular Article 5(3) thereof, Having regard to Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 September 2007 establishing a framework for the approval of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles (Framework Directive) (}), and in particular Article 39(2) thereof, Whereas: (1) Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council () provides that the CO, savings achieved through the use of innovative technologies should be considered for the calculation of each manufac- turer’s average specific emissions of CO,. Detailed rules on the approval and certification of innovative technologies for reducing CO, emissions from light commercial vehicles are set out in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 427/2014 (). (2)  In order to take account of the CO, savings achieved through the use of innovative technologies for the calculation of each manufacturer’s specific emissions target of CO, and in order to ensure efficient monitoring of the specific CO, savings for individual vehicles, vehicles fitted with eco-innovations should be certified as part of the type approval of a vehicle and the savings should, in accordance with Article 11(2) of Regulation (EU) No 427/2014, be specified separately in both the type approval documentation and the certificate of conformity in accordance with Directive 2007/46/EC. (3)  Consequently, it is necessary to modify the documents used in the type-approval process, in order to adequately reflect the information related to eco-innovations. (4)  The amendment of the documents used for type approval aims, on the one hand, at providing the approval authorities with the adequate data for certifying light commercial vehicles fitted with eco-innovations, and, on the other hand, at integrating the CO, savings of the eco-innovations as part of the representative information of a specific type, variant or version of vehicle.
