EU ETS
Established by the EU, the European Union Emissions Trading is one of the world's largest and most comprehensive systems aimed at reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the European Union.
The EU ETS is a cornerstone of the EU's efforts to achieve its climate goals, promoting emission reductions, fostering innovation in cleaner technologies, and encouraging a transition to a low-carbon economy, demonstrating the EU's commitment to addressing climate change through market-based mechanisms and regulatory measures.
UK ETS
Implemented by the United Kingdom, the United Kingdom Emissions Trading System provides a regulatory emissions scheme designed to address and control greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions within the UK and applies to energy intensive industries, power generation and aviation sectors.
An instrumental part of the EU ETS, the UK scheme aims to provide continuity of emissions trading and protect the competitiveness of UK businesses.
CBAM
Proposed by the EU the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) aims to establish a fair price on carbon emissions embedded in the production of carbon-intensive goods entering the EU, encouraging cleaner industrial practices in non-EU countries.
The primary objective is to prevent carbon leakage, ensuring that industries within the EU remain competitive while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
