Council Implementing Decision (EU) 2024/3216 of 10 December 2024 authorising France to apply reduced rates of taxation to electricity directly supplied to stationary aircraft at aerodromes open to public air traffic

France is authorised to apply reduced rates of taxation to electricity directly supplied through the electricity grid to stationary aircraft at aerodromes open to public air traffic, provided that the minimum levels of taxation referred to in Article 10(1) of Directive 2003/96/EC are respected.

This Decision shall apply from 1 January 2025 until 31 December 2028. However, in the event that the Council, acting on the basis of Article 113 or any other relevant provision of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, introduces a modified general system for the taxation of energy products and electricity with which the authorisation granted in Article 1 of this Decision would not be compatible, this Decision shall cease to apply on the day on which that modified general system become applicable.

This Decision shall take effect on the date of its notification.

This Decision is addressed to the French Republic.
