Joint Statement: Weakening ELV circularity targets risks undermining Europe’s recycling efforts
The European Parliament’s draft report on the End-of-Life Vehicles (ELV) Regulation, currently under discussion, raises serious concerns about its impact on circularity in the automotive sector. In this joint statement, we urge policymakers to uphold the targets set by the European Commission and reject any attempts to dilute them. We also urge the rejection of provisions that seek to expand the scope to include new waste types or materials, which could undermine Europe’s recycling and waste management industries.
