In the last decade\, the issue of Just Transition has been gaining momentum both at the EU and global level. \nAt the same time\, to ensure a Just Transition\, both public and private action is needed\, and investments need to be raised\, therefore the work of the private sector in this regard is deemed critical. \nThe meeting will feature two panels: the first panel will be an overview of the Just Transition discussion at EU and global level and the second panel will focus on international experiences on Just Transition from the enterprise and organization level. \nThis meeting is part of the “Informal Dialogue on Response Measures” project\, an independent initiative aimed at creating an open and informal space where participants can share\, explore and understand different points of view on topics related to Response Measures\, such as Just Transition. \nWorkshop Materials \nAgenda \nERCST’s Presentation \nEBRD’s Presentation \nEPRI’s Presentation \nEnel’s Presentation \nITUC’s Presentation \n

SUMMARY:Report Launch: Role of Supply Chain Emissions in Decarbonization and Compliance
DESCRIPTION: Climate policy in the EU has so far lacked a holistic view on how supply chain emissions are addressed and accounted for. In the EU\, the main legislation which currently governs its climate ambition and corporate compliance are focused on Scope 1 emissions\, and to some extent on Scope 2 emissions.  \nAt the same time\, companies are facing growing pressure from asset owners\, employees\, lawmakers and activists to reduce emissions across their entire value-chain\, since it is deemed critical to investors and other stakeholders that these companies tackle environmental factors and risks from value-chain (Scope 3) emissions (e.g. TCFD\, SBTi\, EU Sustainable Finance Taxonomy).  \nThe EU Climate Law as well as the intermediate targets such as the one to 2030\, make it increasingly clear to corporations that all emissions will need to tend to zero in the longer term\, and that all emissions will eventually be regulated. The opportunity space for voluntary commitments will\, in other words\, at some point have to disappear in a net zero world.  \nIn view of the growing importance of addressing supply chain emissions\, ERCST has embarked on an exploration of the main issues and options regarding how to identify and measure these emissions\, and what role they should play in the transition to a low-carbon future.  \nAs part of this project ERCST organized three stakeholder workshops with different industry sectors\, government actors and think tanks and conducted consultations with government representatives of various EU Member States.  \nBuilding on these activities and on desk research\, ERCST has produced a paper that: a) summarizes the views and sentiments of the stakeholders on this issue\, b) examines the conceptual and methodological issues around measuring\, attributing and accounting for supply chain (Scope 3) emissions\, c) explores policy options for incentivizing supply chain emissions and d) looks into potential overlaps and synergies with existing voluntary and regulatory frameworks.  \nDuring this meeting ERCST will present the paper ‘Role of Supply Chain Emissions in decarbonization and compliance’ which will be followed by initial reactions from invited speakers and a roundtable discussion with participants.  \nWorkshop Material(s) \nAgenda \nReport: Role of Supply Chain Emissions in Decarbonization and compliance \nERCST Presentation \nFuels Europe/Concawe Case Study \nNetherlands Presentation \nThis will be a hybrid meeting: \n\nFor those attending in-person the meeting will take place in Rue Archimède 61\, Brussels\, Belgium\nFor those attending online the meeting will take place on Zoom

SUMMARY:Launch of the ERCST Guide to the EU CBAM
DESCRIPTION:The European Green Deal has strengthened the level of climate ambition\, increasing the asymmetry of climate efforts by aiming to achieve climate neutrality in the European Union by 2050. This raises the question of how to deal with competitive pressure and carbon leakage\, pushing Border Carbon Adjustments (BCAs) to the front as a possible solution. \nSince the beginning of the CBAM Project\, ERCST presented the Sectoral CBAM Report with a deep dive into the specificities of individual sectors as well as issues and options of the general CBAM Design. It was followed by the Proposal and discussed with multiple stakeholders in the EU and internationally. \nDuring this meeting the ERCST will present the reaction to the CBAM Proposal based on the earlier studies of CBAM design and redlines.\n\n\n\nERCST’s project on border carbon adjustment is supported by BDI\, CEFIC\, EBRD\, Enel\, Eurofer\, Eurometaux\, Fertilizers Europe\, FuelsEurope\, HeidelbergCement\, the Government of France\, the Government of Germany\, the Government of Spain\, Metinvest\, Solvay and Finnish Innovation Fund Sitra. \n\n\nWorkshop Material(s)\n \nERCST Guide to the EU CBAM \nEU CBAM Brief for Policy Makers \nDraft Agenda

SUMMARY:Assessing the impacts of international Response Measures in Ghana
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is part of the project “Reporting on the Impacts of Response Measures – a case study on Ghana”\, jointly organised by ERCST and the Environmental Protection Agency of Ghana.\nERCST and the EPA in Ghana have been working together on identifying\, measuring and analysing the impacts of the implementation of response measures in Ghana. To foster capacity building and stakeholder participation\, virtual workshops are being organized at each stage of the development of the case study.\nIn previous steps of the project ERCST carried out an analysis of the Ghanaian economy to understand what the most vulnerable sectors to international mitigation policies are. As a result\, 12 sectors were identified\, including oil\, fishing\, tourism\, aluminum and manganese. Afterwards\, specific response measures were associated to each of the 12 vulnerable sectors\, such as IMO\, CORSIA and the EU CBAM.\nAt this stage of the project\, a quantitative assessment of the impacts that the identified response measures could have on certain Ghanaian economic activities will be performed. The analysis will be conducted via a Computable General Equilibrium Analysis (CGE Model).\nDuring this webinar\, the approach and modelling will be presented and reactions from Ghanaian stakeholders will follow. Lastly\, ERCST will moderate a roundtable discussion with the attendees with the aim of gathering feedback on the methodology\, leveraging local knowledge. \nThis meeting is under Chatham House Rules \nParticipation to this event is by invitation only.

SUMMARY:Cooperation on Border Carbon Adjustments
DESCRIPTION:The European Commission has put forward a proposal for a Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) – an enabler of ambitious climate policy in a world of unequal ambition. As other countries respond to the climate crisis\, we can expect to see them follow suit. Indeed\, the UK has pledged to put a CBAM in place\, the US has seen a slew of legislative proposals (including the most recent which does not demand a carbon price)\, and Canada has just announced formal consultations on a border carbon adjustment (BCA). \nIdeally there would be international coordination of these emerging policies; they have high-stakes implications for international trade\, international equity\, climate diplomacy. Some have suggested that BCAs could be an essential element of “climate clubs”\, acting both as a common tariff-like wall\, and as incentive to join. Others have called for international agreement on principles and best practice. \nThis session\, convened by ERCST on the basis of its extensive work on the EU CBAM\, will bring together global thought leaders that have explored this critical aspect of CBAM/BCA\, unpacking the proposals and considering the options. \nERCST’s project on border carbon adjustment is supported by BDI\, CEFIC\, EBRD\, Enel\, Eurofer\, Eurometaux\, Fertilizers Europe\, FuelsEurope\, HeidelbergCement\, the Government of France\, the Government of Germany\, the Government of Spain\, Metinvest\, Solvay and SITRA.  \n\n\nWorkshop Material(s)\n \nDraft-Agenda \nSurvey slides

SUMMARY:ERCST’s COP26 side event on Article 6 of the Paris Agreement
DESCRIPTION:During this event\, the Roundtable on Climate Change and Sustainable Transition (ERCST) invites a group of leading Article 6 negotiators to discuss potential outcomes on Article 6 and how it relates to the wider outcome in Glasgow. \nCOP26 is considered to be an important opportunity to give new momentum to international climate negotiations. Article 6 of the Paris Agreement is the only element that has not been agreed on\, and everyone feels that without it the Paris Agreement is incomplete in spirit. It also has implications for the completion of other important files such the Transparency Framework under the Paris Agreement. \nIn the run op to COP26\, a lot of effort has been put into resolving issues under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement including informal technical expert dialogues organised by the SBSTA Chair and ministerial meetings convened by the COP26 Presidency\, as well as ERCST’s informal dialogue on Article 6. \nThis event is an opportunity for taking stock of all these efforts to discuss the general sense of Article 6 negotiators on potential solutions and how a package could look like. \nThis is an in-person COP26 side event in Glasgow.

SUMMARY:Hydrogen and decarbonised gas market package
DESCRIPTION:This is a hybrid meeting by invitation only\, if you wish to participate please contact: Antonio Fernandez \nThis new workstream aims to bring together stakeholders\, including policymakers and industry on a regular basis to discuss substantive issues around the topic of hydrogen\, informed by original intellectual input from ERCST. \nThis meeting will take stock of the main gaps in the current EU regulatory framework after the Fit for 55 Package first round of publications and how the revision of the hydrogen and decarbonized gas market package and other relevant legislative acts\, such as the Delegated Act on Renewable Fuels of non-Biological Origin (RFNBO) will address them. \nNatural gas\, i.e. fossil methane constitutes around 95% of today’s gaseous fuels consumed in the EU. While the EC has already expressed that energy efficiency related measures and electrification will play a fundamental role to reduce emissions\, in certain areas\, gaseous fuels will remain present in the EU energy system. According to the Climate Target Plan Impact Assessment\, the share of gaseous fuels to total EU energy consumption in 2050 would be about 20%. The EC is therefore looking at policies that facilitate a progressive phase out of unabated use of fossil gasses via gradual replacement of natural gas and the uptake of renewable and low-carbon gases. \nProposals unveiled by the Commission on July 14th have laid the foundations of a specific regulatory framework\, albeit still incomplete\, to promote investments in renewable hydrogen. Conversely\, and pending the revision of the hydrogen and decarbonized gas market package\, it seems that the Commission intends to leverage carbon pricing and the EU Taxonomy to boost demand and supply of other types of hydrogen. \nLooking at the relationship between regulation and the hydrogen value chain\, the Fit for 55 package first round of publications addressed fundamental questions\, mainly covering demand and supply of hydrogen while key regulatory issues for hydrogen transportation and transportation infrastructure have not been fully covered so far. The hydrogen and decarbonized gas package will shed more light on important regulatory missing pieces of the hydrogen puzzle such as for example\, the repurposing of current gas networks to transport hydrogen\, the blending of hydrogen with natural gas\, the planning of networks and retail markets or the protection of consumers and the security of the energy market. \nThis meeting will focus on: \n\nWhat is in the revision of the package for hydrogen?\nWill there be a comprehensive regulatory framework for hydrogen in the EU after the package? What are the missing pieces?\nHas the right balance between regulation and market-based instruments been achieved?\nWhat are the key KPIs to assess if the regulation is delivering the desired outcome?\nWithin this framework\, how should additionality be designed and defined?\n\n10:00                  Welcome and introduction \n\nA.
