EUROPEAN ENERGY-INTENSIVE INDUSTRIES | JOINT STATEMENT | REVISION OF THE EU ETS

Emissions Trading System
22 February 2022

Position paper

Energy-intensive industries support the EU climate ambition with an ETS that both delivers climate targets cost efficiently and supports the decarbonisation of the EU industry.

 

Energy-intensive industries (EIIs) support the EU’s climate neutrality goal by 2050 as well as the 2030 climate target. The “Fit for 55” package adopted on 14 July 2021 is a major step to help the EU achieving the increased climate ambition. The revised EU ETS Directive, core element of the regulatory framework, will highly contribute to the achievement of the reduction of net GHG emission by at least 55% compared to 1990 levels by 2030.
