EU Environmental Taxonomy: Two new FAQ documents published

On 20 October 2023, two FAQ documents on the Environmental Taxonomy Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2020/852) were published in the EU Official Journal. The first FAQ document (Notice C/2023/267) focuses on issues related to the technical screening criteria of the two climate-related environmental objectives and the second FAQ document (Recommendation C/2023/305) focuses on issues related to taxonomy reporting.

The ASCG will continue to engage with developments on the EU environmental taxonomy. In the past, we held eleven user forums on the EU Environmental Taxonomy with our member companies and associations. The problems and possible solutions discussed in the user forums were forwarded to the European Commission in the form of submissions. Some of the issues raised in the submissions are also addressed in the FAQ documents published by the European Commission. Additional information can be found on the relevant ASCG project page.
