On 17 July 2026 the European Commission unveiled a long‑awaited reform of the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) that will keep emissions allowances in place beyond 2040. The move reverses earlier expectations that the allowance mechanism might be phased out and represents a clear policy decision on the long‑term design of the EU carbon market.
According to the Commission, the reform aims to reduce immediate compliance pressure on European industry while preserving the EU’s climate ambitions. Leaving allowances active after 2040 maintains market‑based compliance tools and creates a continued framework for trading and allocation of carbon permits.
The package is presented as a balancing act between industrial competitiveness and decarbonisation goals; the Commission provided further detail on allocation rules, caps and transitional measures as part of the reform announcement. #EU #ETS #climate #emissions #FiatNews
