Legislation Corner Regulation on the Quality of Liquid Petroleum Fuels and the Method of Monitoring and Reporting and Methodology of Calculating Greenhouse Gas Emissions in the Life Cycle of Supplied Fuels and Energy (OG 57/2017) - June 2017 The Regulation transposes the Directive 2015/1513 relating to the quality of petrol and diesel fuels and amending Directive 2009/28/EC on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources into the legislation of the Republic of Croatia. In relation to the obligation prescribed by the Directive to reduce GHG by 6% by 2020 (compared to 2010) in the life cycle of fuels and energy per unit of energy prescribed by the Regulation, designed suppliers will be obliged to calculate and report following the definitions and the calculation method starting in 2018 with verified data for 2017. Regulation on the limitation of emissions values of air pollutants from stationary sources (OG 87 /2017) - September 2017 This Regulation lays down mainly the emission limit values of air pollutants from stationary sources, the monitoring and evaluation of emissions, the manner of reducing emissions of pollutants into the air, the manner and timing of delivery of emission reports to the Croatian Environment and Nature Agency and to the competent bodies of the European Union as well as the level of tolerance for the existing sources for a certain period. The primary reason for the revision of the Regulation is harmonization with the Directive (EU) 2015/2193 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the limitation of emissions of certain pollutants into the air from medium combustion plants. “Europe on the Move” is a series of proposals aimed to encourage clean and sustainable mobility Low-carbon Strategy Through half June/half July 2017 public hearing and public presentation of the draft of Low-carbon Development Strategy in Croatia was held. Strategy draft establishes measures which can be taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in different sectors (energy, industry, transport, agriculture, waste management...). The purpose of the low-carbon Development Strategy in Croatia is to achieve a competitive low-carbon economy in Croatia by 2050. The strategy sets the way for transition towards sustainable competitive economy in which economic growth is achieved through activities, industries and fuels with low greenhouse gas emissions. 10 Fuels&Lubricants No. 1 OCTOBER 2017
