1. The Commission is aware of its obligation under Article 15(2) of Regulation (EU) 2023/2405 (ReFuelEU Aviation)[1] and aims to publish its report in the shortest time possible.
The report will address important issues involving the entire value chain of the aviation fuels ecosystem. In preparing this report, the Commission conducted an extensive stakeholder consultation process which highlighted, among other things, the high complexity of the issue at stake and the necessary measures to be made to the already existing flexibility mechanism. Therefore, the Commission recognises that more time was necessary to produce the report. The document is being finalised and the European Parliament will be notified as soon as the report is published.
2. The work under the preparatory action on Establishing a book and claim system for SAF (sustainable aviation fuel) will directly relate to recommendations contained in the Commission report. It will be implemented in close cooperation with the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) over a period of three years.
