Event Overview
This online debate, hosted by the Florence School of Regulation, will delve into the critical review of the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) scheduled for 2026. As the EU aims for climate neutrality, the ETS is pivotal in shaping policies that drive emission reductions across various sectors.
Key Discussion Points
The debate will focus on several pressing issues, including:
- Integration of carbon removals into the ETS framework.
- Expansion of the system's scope to cover more sectors.
- Addressing carbon leakage in sectors not included in the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM).
- Evaluating the market stability reserve (MSR) and its role in price volatility.
- Exploring the use of ETS revenues and conditions for international linkages.
The event will feature a moderated panel format, allowing for interactive discussions among experts from academia, civil society, and industry. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in a Q&A session, ensuring a comprehensive exploration of the topics at hand.
Future Training Opportunities
Additionally, the session will introduce the first NETS training course on the functioning of the EU ETS, set to take place in February 2027 at the European University Institute. This initiative aims to enhance understanding and credibility of emissions trading systems, fostering public trust while effectively delivering emission reductions.
