Webinar: A fair and effective ETS2 – how do we get there?

Background

The autumn has been packed with political developments regarding the upcoming Emission Trading System for road transport and buildings (ETS2). A number of significant changes to the scheme have been suggested following calls from EU member states, including a reform of the ETS2 Market Stability Reserve as well as a one-year postponement.

What are the consequences of these changes to the effectiveness and fairness of carbon pricing for road transport and buildings? And what measures are actually needed to ensure a socially fair and environmentally effective ETS2?

Join us for expert presentations and a timely discussion on these topics between researchers, analysts, civil society representatives and forward-looking industry.

The event also marks the launch of the ETS2 101 guide produced by the LIFE Effect consortium.
