This meeting will launch the 2021 State of the EU ETS Report, produced by ERCST together with the Wegener Center on climate and global change, Bloomberg New Energy Finance and EcoAct. During the meeting, the authors will present the Report and their main conclusions, followed by a high-level roundtable discussion on the future of the EU ETS. This will be the sixth annual addition on the State of the EU ETS Report.

The State of the EU ETS Report aims to be an independent contribution to the policy debate, which is needed to ensure that the EU ETS is “fit for purpose.” This report discusses the current state of play in the EU ETS, while also identifying a number of issues that will need to be monitored in the coming years. The Report is intended as a “snapshot”, providing policymakers and stakeholders with an overview of how the EU ETS is doing by April of each year, based on previous year data.

This report made possible through support from the German Ministry for Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety, and the French Ministry for the Ecological Transition
