The Estonian government supported the European Commission's proposal.
This proposal postpones the deadline for complying with methane regulations.
Additional time is needed for companies to prepare.
Without extra time, energy prices may rise.
This could make energy more expensive for everyone.
The Minister of Energy and Environment said this is what companies want.
Reducing methane is important, but the rules need to be simple.
The extra time will help companies avoid problems.
The rules mainly affect companies that import fuel.
They will need to submit data on methane.
If the requirements are not met on time, fuel shortages may occur.
Estonia gets its gas from other countries.
Therefore, problems in Europe could also affect Estonia.
If gas supplies decrease, prices may rise.
Estonia believes companies need more time.
An extra year will help companies and officials prepare.
Estonia supports methane reduction but wants simpler rules.
The rules should not be too strict or expensive.
This does not mean the rules won't be enforced.
Only their deadline is being slightly postponed.
Other rules remain unchanged.
