Response to EU rules on industrial emissions - revision

23 Jun 2022

MGYOSZ (BusinessHungary) opinion on the revision of the Industrial Emission Directive for the open public consultation According to the evaluation of the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) carried out by the Commission in 2019/2020, the IED was evaluated as largely efficient by broadly serving its purpose and showing tangible results (reduction in emissions regarding all key environmental pollutants). MGYOSZ (BusinessHungary) would agree that the existing IED sufficiently controls environmental impacts of industrial activities, and therefore, only minor changes are justified if any. Amending IED in a way to address decarbonization and circularity specifically, changes the principles of the Directive which it is intended to serve, and would impose a disproportionate burden and double obligations on industry, since decarbonization and circularity is addressed by several sector specific legislations under the Green Deal. The BAT process laid down in the IED has already ensures that the European companies must seek for continuous development as the best available techniques are reviewed and developed periodically. Therefore, MGYOSZ (BusinessHungary) does not see the need to tighten up the Directive, especially in the view of the current geopolitical and economic situation, when it is crucial that the European industry be able to maintain its competitiveness.
