EU ETS Phase 3: How The Coming Changes Will Affect Your Operation
The EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) is a cornerstone of the European Union's policy to combat climate change and its key tool for reducing industrial greenhouse gas emissions cost-effectively. Being the first and biggest international scheme for the trading of greenhouse gas emission allowances, the EU ETS represents a major factor for all sizable businesses operating in Europe.
The EU ETS Companies that do not fully understand the risks associated with the ETS are at a competitive disadvantage. As the ETS moves into its Phase 3 in 2013, the requirements will become broader, encompassing more European facilities and industries. Also, the methods to ensuring you are properly positioned will get more complicated. In short, ETS Phase 3 will likely be more costly and more complex than the previous trading periods. Companies must be prepared.
