SUMMARY:Informal Forum on Implementation of Article 6 of the Paris Agreement under the UNFCCC process - by invitation only
DESCRIPTION:This meeting is part of the “Implementation of markets and non-markets provisions in the Paris Agreement” project\, which aims to create an informal atmosphere\, where the main objective is to explore\, discover\, explain and understand different points of view related to the issues in Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. That is\, to understand the options available to define rules\, modalities and procedures on Article 6 of the Paris Agreement\, as well as the consequences of adopting each option.\nDay 1: This meeting was the first informal dialogue following the COP 24 in Katowice\, looking back on the divisive parts of Article 6 that parties worked with at the COP\, such as corresponding adjustments and the aspect of transparency.\nDay 2: The second day concentrated on sustainable development\, the links between Articles 6 and 15\, as well as burgeoning pilot projects and the potential influence they could have on Article 6. The session ended with looking at the way forward for the upcoming session in June and COP 25 in Santiago.\n \nWorkshop Material\nAgenda\nUNFCCC Documents\nKatowice text\, 14 Dec 2018\nArticle 6 Draft Negotiating Texts\, 8 Dec 2018\nArticle 6 Draft Negotiating L Texts\nComparative Analysis of the COP 25 Text\nERCST Paper Comparing Katowice Texts and Material\nPresentation by A.

SUMMARY:Funding mechanisms in Phase 4 of the EU ETS - Prague workshop
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, jointly organised by ERCST and CEEP in cooperation with CEZ Group\, a paper and the preliminary results from a survey on the process and design of the funding mechanisms in the EU ETS will be presented. This will be followed by some initial interventions by key national stakeholders and an open discussion with participants. The project partners will provide some guiding questions for the interventions and discussion.\nIf you wish to attend\, please contact Domien Vangenechten at dvangenechten@ercst.org\n \nDownload(s)\nAgenda\nPresentation on funding mechanisms – ERCST & CEEP\n \nBackground\nThe European Roundtable on Climate Change and Sustainable Transition and Central European Energy Partners are together working on a project that aims to provide room for discussion and capture positions from key stakeholders on the optimal functionality and overall design of the funding mechanisms in Phase 4 of the EU ETS\, being the Modernisation Fund\, the Innovation Fund and Article 10c derogation (transitional free allocation for the modernisation of the energy sector).\nIn light of this project\, a paper was written\, taking stock of what is known and highlighting which issues need to be elaborated on during the implementation phase\, which was discussed with stakeholders at an event in Brussels in September.\nCurrently\, a survey is being conducted with a very broad group of stakeholders\, including representatives from EU Member States\, and companies/associations across the Member States.

SUMMARY:Preparing the review of the Market Stability Reserve
DESCRIPTION:The MSR has started to operate this year and the first review is scheduled in 2021. In this review\, the track-record and impacts of the MSR will be analysed. Based on this analysis\, and a discussion on what the MSR is ought to achieve\, a decision will have to be made on whether or not to change the parameters\, and if so\, how.\nDuring this event\, ERCST will present an outline on how a review of the MSR could be carried out\, and which parameters are to be monitored. This will be followed by two panel discussions: one on the goals and functions of the MSR and one on indicators to monitor for the 2021 review.\nYou can register for this event via this link.\n \nEvent Material(s)\nAgenda\nPresentation by ERCST – Preparing the review of the MSR\nPresentation by Öko Institut\n  \nRelated Events\n2026 State of ETS – LaunchMay 20 @ 15:00 - 16:30International Townhall: CBAM in an International ContextJune 23 @ 14:30 - 16:30\nLaunch Event – Carbon Leakage under CBAM and Free AllocationMay 13 @ 10:30 - 12:30Launch Event – 2026 ETS ReviewApril 23 @ 10:00 - 12:00Stakeholder Consultation: CBAM in an International ContextApril 22 @ 15:00 - 17:00 \n

SUMMARY:Issues and options for the revision of the state aid guidelines in the context of the EU ETS
DESCRIPTION:The state aid guidelines are up for revision – not review – which means that they could change significantly. The current guidelines expire on 31 December 2020\, and the new guidelines would ‘indicatively’ be ready by Q3 2020 – just a few months before the new ones actually enter into force.\nThe new state aid guidelines will need to balance a number of issues\, among which: \n\ncarbon leakage risk\nrisk of overcompensation and potential windfall profits\nrisk of internal market distortion\nhow to incentivise cost efficient decarbonisation\n\nERCST is preparing an issues and options paper on how indirect EU ETS costs could be dealt with by the new guidelines. This meeting is part of a series of meeting on state aid guidelines and indirect costs compensation\, which started with a discussion with stakeholders on January 31\, and will continue throughout the year with the next meetings planned on May 8 and September 19. The final paper will be released in the Autumn of 2019.\nDuring this meeting\, ERCST will present its views on the most important issues linked to the revision of the state aid guidelines\, and raise some issues and options for discussion. This will be followed by panel discussions on how indirect costs should be dealt with by the state aid guidelines.\nYou can register for this event via this link\n \nEvent Material(s)\nAgenda\nPresentation by ERCST – Revision of the State aid guidelines\nPresentation by BDI\nPresentation by Eurometaux\nPresentation by France\nPresentation by Heidelberg Cement\nPresentation by Hydro\nPresentation by Statkraft\n \nRelated Events\n2026 State of ETS – LaunchMay 20 @ 15:00 - 16:30International Townhall: CBAM in an International ContextJune 23 @ 14:30 - 16:30\nLaunch Event – Carbon Leakage under CBAM and Free AllocationMay 13 @ 10:30 - 12:30Launch Event – 2026 ETS ReviewApril 23 @ 10:00 - 12:00Stakeholder Consultation: CBAM in an International ContextApril 22 @ 15:00 - 17:00
