How is the carbon target for large importers calculated?

The target for large importers is calculated for the entire fleet of LCVs registered by each importer for the first time in the reference year using the following formula:

Permissible specific emission = 186 + a × (Mi,t – Mt-2) grams of CO2 per kilometre.

where:

186: target level in grams of CO2 per kilometre
   
a: 0.096 increase of target level lines
   
Mi,t: average unladen weight of light commercial vehicles (in kilograms) registered by the importer for the first time in the reference year.
   
Mt-2: average unladen weight of light commercial vehicles (in kilograms) registered for the first time in Switzerland in the last but one calendar year prior to the reference year.
   
  For 2024, the average unladen weight for 2022 applies, i.e. 2117 kilograms.


Note: a definitive calculation can only be made after expiry of the reference year.

A penalty applies if the relevant CO2 emissions of the fleet exceed the specified individual target level.
