Format for reporting of data referred to in Article 16(6) of Directive 2012/19/EU and quality check report
Article 2
1. Member States shall report the quantities of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) placed on their markets, of WEEE collected through all routes, the collection rate achieved and, where applicable, the quantity of WEEE generated, using the format set out in Table 1 of Annex II. That data shall be reported per category of EEE set out in Annex III to Directive 2012/19/EU. For category 4 ‘large equipment’, data shall be reported under two sub-categories, namely ‘4a: Large equipment excluding photovoltaic panels’ and ‘4b: Photovoltaic panels’. 2. Member States shall report the quantities of WEEE prepared for re-use, recycled and recovered, the combined rate achieved for preparing for re-use and recycling, the recovery rate achieved and the quantities of WEEE treated in the Member State and, where relevant, treated in another Member State or outside the Union using the format set out in Table 2 of Annex II. That data shall be reported per category of EEE set out in Annex III to Directive 2012/19/EU. For category 4 ‘large equipment’, data shall be reported under two sub-categories, namely ‘4a: Large equipment excluding photovoltaic panels’ and ‘4b: Photovoltaic panels’. 3. Member States shall report the data referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 in electronic form, by means of an interchange standard set up by the Commission. 4. Member States shall report the data on the weight of EEE placed on the market as calculated in accordance with Article 3 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/699. 5. Member States shall report the data on the weight of WEEE generated as calculated in accordance with to Article 4 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/699. 6. Member States shall report the collection rate attained in a reporting year calculated on the basis of the average weight of EEE placed on their markets in the three preceding years. Where a Member State calculates the collection rate on the basis of the quantity of WEEE generated in its territory, it shall report data on the weight of WEEE generated and data on the WEEE collection rate based on WEEE generated. Where a Member State calculates the collection rate on the basis of the average weight of EEE placed on the market in the three preceding years, it may report, on a voluntary basis, data on the weight of WEEE generated and data on the WEEE collection rate based on WEEE generated. 7. Member States shall submit a quality check report using the format set out in Annex III to this Decision. Where Member States use substantiated estimates to report data on the quantities and categories of WEEE collected through all routes, on WEEE treated within the Member State, or on the average percentage of recycled and recovered materials originating from WEEE and of components of WEEE, the methodology used for those estimates shall be described in the quality check report.
