Identification, analysis and presentation of the products in the industrial sectors covered by the EU ETS, their economic importance and their significance for CO₂ emissions

In this data research project, quantitative data from available sources of information relating to two core topics will be researched and compiled in a uniform data format:1. product-related material flows, energy consumption and (direct and indirect) greenhouse gas emissions within the scope of the EU-ETS 1, with a focus on the steel, cement, aluminium, refinery and basic chemicals industries.2. building on this, the further process steps along the value chain up to two selected end products: a) a passenger car and b) plastic packaging. Based on the data from the analysis for the scope of EU-ETS 1 (step 1. as mentioned above), the case studies were developed to determine and quantify the CO₂ emissions and the cost shares caused by these emissions through the EU-ETS 1 along the value chain at the end product level.

The EU CBAM and a climate club: synergies and potential obstacles for full integration

This discussion paper analyses potential synergies between climate clubs and CBAMs. It presents a case study of the concrete proposals currently debated for implementation: 1) the EU CBAM which looks set to be adopted by the EU Council and Parliament later this year and 2) the proposal for a climate club that was adopted by the G7 at their summit in June 2022. Chapter 2 introduces the two instruments and explains how they interrelate. Chapter 3 discusses potential obstacles to a full integration of both instruments. Chapter 4 shows how product-specific standards can be a tool at the intersection of both instruments, thereby augmenting synergies between them. The paper is directed at policy makers as well as the general scientific community that conducts research on the topics described above. Quelle: www.umweltbundesamt.de
