Commission proposes one-year delay to methane rules for EU oil, gas and coal importers
COM(2026) 569, adopted 14 October 2026, would push back by a year the obligations in the EU Methane Regulation that require importers to prove their foreign supply is monitored to EU standards, and the methane-intensity reporting and limits for importers and EU producers. The Commission cites the Hormuz supply shock. Parliament and Council still have to agree.
