SUMMARY:State of EU ETS - Second Stakeholders Meeting
DESCRIPTION:This is an invitation only event. If interested in joining please contact cmeinardi@ercst.org or tpaperini@ercst.org \nImportant: this is an in person meeting. Online participation is allowed only for those based outside of Brussels. \n  \nThis second meeting is intended as a stakeholder/expert workshop with a small group of invited stakeholders and policy makers\, which will brainstorm on the outline and content of the 2026 State of the EU ETS Report [1]. This will be the eleventh annual report on the State of the EU ETS and builds on the reports produced by this group of authors\, and other partners\, in the last years. The 2025 edition is available through this link. \nThe 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. \nFor each topic\, the authors will present the expected draft outline and content\, which will allow for an in-depth discussion with the participants\, and to address any gaps\, or make any corrections needed. \n[1] The 2026 State of the EU ETS Report is a joint effort between ERCST\, Compass Lexecon\, BloombergNEF\, and the Wegener Centre for climate and global change at the University of Graz.

SUMMARY:Quo Vadis ETS: Challenges and Solutions
DESCRIPTION:This was an-invitation only event. \nERCST\, since its inception\, has been a strong advocate of market solutions and economic instruments to address environmental challenges and find sustainable solutions. At the same time ERCST has also consistently emphasized that a strong and prosperous Europe requires a strong industrial base. \nThe EU finds itself now at an important inflection point: the Climate Law specifies very ambitious targets for 2040 and 2050\, while industrial competitiveness is under significant pressure. This is reflected in the closure of installations\, a lack of investments in energy-intensive industries\, and increasingly significant job losses. \nThe EU ETS\, as one of the key pillars of EU climate change policy has delivered an increasingly strong explicit carbon price\, as well as a rising effective carbon price(cost) driven by the decreasing cap\, the introduction of CBAM and strengthened benchmarks. \nLeading to\, and following the recent meeting in Antwerp\, which focused on competitiveness and touched upon the EU ETS\, there have been voices advocating strong measures such as pausing the EU ETS and/or the CBAM. Others\, while agreeing that strong and urgent measures are needed\, emphasize the need for measures that address the cost while preserving the flexibility and usefulness of the price signal. In Antwerp\, industry demands seemed to focus on energy and carbon cost\, especially as they relate to the adjustment in benchmarks. \nThis session was intended for a policy level discussion on the direction of the policy debate for the EU ETS ahead of the expected European Commission proposal in July 2026. The panel was invited to elaborate on the problems that need to be addressed\, in the short and long term\, but also how to address them and what are the broader consequences of their views on the way forward. Costs are emerging as a key issue\, with the additional question of who bears the costs under different models. \nDraft Agenda Recording

SUMMARY:2026 Review of EU ETS - Stakeholder meeting
DESCRIPTION:This is an invitation-only event. If interested in participating\, please email: cmeinardi@ercst.org\, tpaperini@ercst.org.  \nThis is an online event. \n\n2026 will see a review of the EU Emissions Trading System for maritime\, aviation and stationary installations (EU ETS) Directive\, including the Market Stability Reserve (MSR) Decision. Other key developments to be considered include the gradual phase-out of free allocation and the implementation of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM)\, while uncertainties around ETS2 implementation\, possible consideration of integration of International Credits to cover up to 5% of emission reductions\, potential inclusion of CDRs\, and the potential inclusion of agriculture in ETS or similar systems raise the question of how much the ETS will be affected and what issues will stem from them. Furthermore\, while the ETS effectively incentivizes decarbonization on the supply side\, it does not provide incentives for demand for low carbon products. \n\n\nThe review aims to evaluate whether the current design of the ETS and the MSR remains effective and fit for purpose under these conditions. \n\n\nThe European Commission is conducting the review in the third quarter of 2026 through an evaluation and impact assessment process supported by stakeholder consultation.  \n\nTherefore\, this stakeholder meeting is thought as an initial discussion with selected stakeholders on the logic behind the 2026 ETS Review.

SUMMARY:Launch Event - 2026 ETS Review
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”” css_params=””] \nThis is the Launch Event for the work that ERCST is doing on the Review of the EU ETS. During this event\, we will launch “Review of the EU ETS: Challenges and Policy Levers to address them”. The session will highlight key issues to be discussed in the upcoming Review of the EU ETS\, and the levers in the EU ETS that can be used to address them. \nThe report issued in this launch is intended to provide a logic and a story for the discussion that should\, in our view\, take place under the upcoming Review of the EU ETS. It is not intended to go into technical analysis and search for solutions to individual issues\, but try and provide ideas on how the agenda for the review should be set. \nAgenda Slides  Report   Recording[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Launch Event - Carbon Leakage under CBAM and Free Allocation
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”” css_params=””]ERCST and the Climate Economics Chair (CEC) are carrying out a study on the long-term effects of free allocation versus full auctioning on industry\, the carbon price\, and investment signals. The project will develop and run a model that incorporates international trade and carbon leakage\, including the interplay between free allocation and CBAM. \nThe work encompassed a number of iterative consultations with stakeholders. \nThis public launch event will present the analytical findings and policy messages\, targeting EU policymakers\, stakeholders\, and academics. \n  \nAgenda Slides  Paper[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:2026 State of ETS - Launch
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”” css_params=””] \nThis is the launch event of the 2026 State of the EU ETS Report[1]. During this event the report will be presented by the authors and discussed by commentators. This will be the tenth annual report on the State of the EU ETS and builds on the reports produced by this group of authors\, and other partners\, in the last years. The 2025 edition isavailable through this link. \nThe European Commission is required to annually assess\, according to the EU ETS Directive\, the functioning of theEU ETS and report back to the EU Parliament and Council. While the European Commission has its role to play inproviding an official report\, it is also important that independent review and assessment of the functioning and delivery of the EU ETS takes place. \nThe annual “State of the EU ETS” Report aims to provide such an independent contribution to the policy debate\,which is needed to ensure that the EU ETS is “fit for purpose”. 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. \nThis event will cover the 2026 Report. This year’s edition reflects the track record of the ETS last year\, its recent developments\, and the role the ETS is expected to play in the longer term. \n[1] The 2026 State of the EU ETS Report is a joint effort between ERCST\, BloombergNEF\, Compass Lexecon.  \nDraft Agenda Recording[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
