Fit for 55 package
The 'fit for 55' package of July and December 2021 was designed to realise the European Climate Law objectives: climate neutrality by 2050 and a 55 % reduction of net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030, compared with 1990 levels. It consisted of 13 interlinked proposals to revise existing EU climate and energy laws, and six new legislative proposals. All proposals, except the Energy Taxation Directive, have been adopted or agreed by the European Parliament and the Council of the EU. The package ...
Carbon border adjustment mechanism
The carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) puts a price on the carbon emissions of goods imported into the EU, thus levelling the playing field between EU industry, which is subject to a carbon price in the EU emissions trading system (EU ETS), and foreign producers in countries that do not have an equivalent system in place.
System of own resources of the European Union
On 22 December 2021, the European Commission announced its proposal for the introduction of new own resources. The underlying objective is to decrease the share of own resources based on gross national income (GNI) in the revenue mix while preserving existing long-term EU policy commitments. The initiative also seeks to secure the necessary resources to cover new budgetary expenditures, such as the repayments of the debt arising from the Next Generation EU recovery fund and the recently adopted Social ...
Aviation's contribution to European Union climate action: Revision of EU ETS as regards aviation
As part of the 'fit for 55' package, the Commission proposed a revision to the EU's emissions trading system (ETS) as regards carbon dioxide emissions from aviation. The proposal sought to ensure that the sector contributes to the EU's climate targets through increased auctioning of allowances, with an end to free allowances from 2027, and by applying the linear reduction of aviation allowances. The proposal would also integrate, into the revised ETS, the International Civil Aviation Organization's ...
Review of the EU ETS: 'Fit for 55' package
As part of the 'Fit for 55' package, the European Commission presented a legislative proposal to review the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS). The aim of the review is to align the EU ETS Directive with the EU targets set out in the European Climate Law. To this end, the amount of emission allowances would be reduced, fewer allowances would be allocated for free, and the ETS would be extended to maritime transport. A separate new emissions trading system would be established for fuel distribution ...
Revision of the market stability reserve for the EU emissions trading system: Fit for 55 package
The proposal to revise the market stability reserve (MSR) for the EU emissions trading system (ETS) consists of prolonging its current parameters. Under the current rules, the intake rate of allowances to the MSR and the minimum allowances placed in the reserve have been doubled until the end of 2023, to allow for a quick removal of surplus EU ETS allowances. The proposal is aimed at maintaining the current doubled intake rate (24 %) and minimum number of allowances placed in the reserve (200 million ...
Statistical own resources Examples of the gender pay gap and food waste.
Statistical own resources could be devised to create more independence from the Gross National Income (GNI) contribution and address policy issues at the same time. Statistical own resources should practically be based on information already collected by Eurostat. Therefore, Member States do not have to provide new data. The base and call-rate of a policy-linked statistical contribution could be designed and fine-tuned to entail deliberate distributive implications among Member States. This could ...
Społeczny Fundusz Klimatyczny
Komisja Europejska zaproponowała utworzenie Społecznego Funduszu Klimatycznego jako części pakietu „Gotowi na 55”, aby wesprzeć znajdujących się w najtrudniejszej sytuacji obywateli i przedsiębiorstwa, których dotknie rozszerzenie unijnego systemu handlu uprawnieniami do emisji (ETS) na sektory budownictwa i transportu drogowego. Społeczny Fundusz Klimatyczny byłby częściowo finansowany z przyszłych dochodów z ETS i wykorzystywany, aby bezpośrednio wspierać dochód i inwestycje w renowacje budynków ...
Przegląd systemu EU ETS: „Gotowi na 55”
14 lipca 2021 r. w ramach pakietu „Gotowi na 55” Komisja Europejska przedstawiła wniosek ustawodawczy dotyczący przeglądu unijnego systemu handlu uprawnieniami do emisji (ETS). Ma on dostosować system ETS do celu określonego w Europejskim prawie o klimacie, jakim jest ograniczenie do 2030 r. emisji netto gazów cieplarnianych w UE o 55 % w porównaniu z poziomami z 1990 r. Porozumienie trójstronne, osiągnięte w grudniu 2022 r., ma zostać poddane pod głosowanie na sesji plenarnej w kwietniu 2023 r.
Unijny mechanizm dostosowywania cen na granicach z uwzględnieniem emisji CO2
Wniosek Komisji Europejskiej w sprawie mechanizmu dostosowywania cen na granicach z uwzględnieniem emisji CO2 (CBAM) miał wyrównać warunki działania producentów z UE i z państw trzecich poprzez objęcie niektórych importowanych produktów opłatą emisyjną, przy jednoczesnym stopniowym wycofywaniu przydziału bezpłatnych uprawnień do emisji dla przemysłu europejskiego. 22 czerwca 2022 r. Parlament Europejski przyjął swoje stanowisko, wprowadziwszy istotne poprawki do pierwotnego wniosku. Wstępne porozumienie ...
