SUMMARY:Border Carbon Adjustments -  Conceptual Stakeholders Meeting on Alternatives
DESCRIPTION:As the EU considers its most ambitious decarbonization targets yet under the European Green Deal\, many consider a border carbon adjustment essential to sustain Europe’s continued leadership in a world of asymmetrical climate efforts. Technical and administrative details need to be resolved for such a policy to become reality\, and that will be complex. In the workstream on ‘Border Carbon Adjustments in the EU’\, ERCST will carefully analyse the options to consider when designing a BCA\, with the objective of creating 2-3 BCA proposals that could be implemented at the EU level. \nThis is the third public meeting for ERCST’s workstream on ‘Border Carbon Adjustments in the EU’. The intention of these meetings is to facilitate discussion among a variety of stakeholders on the objectives\, concerns\, and options that should be considered when designing a BCA in the EU. This session will focus on the assessment of possible alternatives for BCAs\, such as carbon contracts for difference (CfD) and a consumption charge (CC).  \n  \nRegistration Link \n \nWorkshop Material(s)\nAgenda\nPresentation on BCA alternatives by ERCST\nPresentation on BCA alternatives by O.

SUMMARY:Virtual USA-EU 'Town Hall' on Border Carbon Adjustments
DESCRIPTION:The European Roundtable on Climate Change and Sustainable Transition (ERCST) and the Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions at Duke University are organising a virtual USA-EU “town hall meeting” on June 17\, 2020 on the role that Border Carbon Adjustments (BCAs) may play in addressing asymmetry in climate ambition under the Paris Agreement\, with special focus on the plans that the European Union has to examine this option. This activity together with other similar planned “town hall” meetings will feed into a policy paper on the international views on BCA that ERCST will publish in collaboration with its partners.\nThe 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 BCAs to the front as a possible solution.\nBorder carbon adjustments (BCAs) aim to alleviate negative effects caused by uneven climate policies by including imports and/or exempting exports. BCAs seek to level the playing field in competitive markets\, incentivize trade partners to strengthen their own climate efforts and prevent leakage of carbon emissions to jurisdictions with weaker policies. These objectives can be achieved by a tariff or other fiscal measure applied to imported goods\, the extension of regulatory compliance obligations (e.g. ETS) to imports or a tax exemption or regulatory relief for exports.\nThis virtual town-hall is part of the ERCST project on border carbon adjustment\, which is supported by Eurofer\, Enel\, FuelsEurope\, the Government of France\, the Government of Germany\, HeidelbergCement\, MetInvest\, and Solvay.\n  \nParticipation in these town halls is by invitation only.

SUMMARY:Informal Forum on Implementation of Article 6 of the Paris Agreement (4th webinar)
DESCRIPTION:This meeting is part of the “Implementation of market and non-market 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.\nSince 2014\, ERCST has been hosting an ‘informal dialogue’ between negotiators\, informed by a few selected expert. Under the current circumstances\, the dialogue is currently being organised through regularly scheduled webinars.\nThis session will focus on the topic of Registries and case studies of ITMOs exchanges in integrated grids.\n  \nParticipation in these meetings is by invitation only.
