The EU-Emissions Trading Scheme: Status

EU ETS is a market-based mechanism to incentivise reduction of greenhousegas emissions

The EU ETS is based on the "cap and trade" principle.

Allocation processes: National allocations Plans (NAP) and auctions

EU ETS periods:

Trial period (2005-2007): Covers 50% of all CO

total annual GHG emissions) and industries related to combustion and

process emissions from electricity generation and selected industries, 95%

of allowances must be allocated freely, 5% can be auctioned, penalties

euros per ton of CO2

Kyoto Commitment Period ( 2008-2012). Cap 13% below first period,

of allowances must be allocated freely, 10% can be auctioned, penalties

100 euros per ton of CO2. Airlines will join the squeme 2012.

Third period (2013-2020). A single EU

will apply from 2013 and will be cut annually. In 2020 emissions will be 21%

lower than in 2005. Sector and gases covered by EU

expanded. At least 50% allowances are expected to be auctioned.

. Airlines will join the squeme 2012.

. A single EU-wide cap on emissions allowances

will apply from 2013 and will be cut annually. In 2020 emissions will be 21%

lower than in 2005. Sector and gases covered by EU-ETS will be

expanded. At least 50% allowances are expected to be auctioned.

The cost of controllling emissions Distribution of allowances: Harmonization Free allocation: perverse effect of providing more free allocation to the

highest emitting instalation. Benchmarks for free allocation Uses of the Goverment revenue obtained by auctioning Adjustement of allowances: If too many allowances are issued there

would be no scarcity so no market would develop Long-term certainty for investment planning Allowances price volatily can be dampened by incluiding allowances
