Authors: Andrei Marcu, Aaron Cosbey, Michael Mehling
On March 18, ERCST presented the Sectoral CBAM Report with a deep dive into the specificities of individual sectors as well as chapter synthetizing the findings to a general CBAM Design. According to the roadmap for the European Green Deal, and European Council conclusions from July, a proposal for a BCA for “selected sectors” will be released in 2021 and should be introduced by the end of 2022.
This report delves into a CBAM Proposal with the optimal options for the general CBAM Design. This report is the second in a series of fours reports that will be published during the 2nd part of ERCST’s project on Border Carbon Adjustments in the EU.
