The Commission exceeded its powers by imposing a ceiling on greenhouse gas emission allowances

Miroslava Valigurska — 2012-04-10T18:25:00Z

The Directive 2003/87/ES establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance provided that, for each five year period, each Member State was to develop a national allocation plan (NAP) stating the total quantity of allowances that it intended to allocate for that period and how it proposed to allocate them.

If the plan was incompatible with the criteria laid down in the Directive, the Commission could reject the NAP or any aspect thereof.

The Commision is not authorized to impose on Member State an upper limit of greenhouse gas emission allowances.
