December 2 @ 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm
Event by Carbon Market Watch
How can we make the upcoming Emission Trading System for road transport and buildings (ETS2) fair and effective in light of recent changes?
Background
The autumn has been packed with political developments regarding the upcoming Emission Trading System for road transport and buildings (ETS2). A number of significant changes to the scheme have been suggested following calls from EU member states, including a reform of the ETS2 Market Stability Reserve as well as a one-year postponement.
What are the consequences of these changes to the effectiveness and fairness of carbon pricing for road transport and buildings? And what measures are actually needed to ensure a socially fair and environmentally effective ETS2?
Join us for expert presentations and a timely discussion on these topics between researchers, analysts, civil society representatives and forward-looking industry.
The event also marks the launch of the ETS2 101 guide produced by the LIFE Effect consortium.
