Evaluation and further development of the EU-ETS in the context of the amendment of the ETS Directive and the European Green Deal with an economic focus

The aim of the project is to support UBA/DEHSt as the responsible agency and the BMU as the lead department flexibly and dynamically during the political processes on relevant topics with scientific expertise and, in particular, economic analyses. Existing preliminary work is to be supplemented in a meaningful way and accents are to be set on selected issues in the political and scientific discourse.

The project consists of the following work packages:

WP 1: Design and analysis of an EU fuel ETS ("ETS II")

WP 2: Economic impacts of the reform of the EU-ETS on industry and interactions with other instruments for decarbonisation of industry

WP 3: UK-ETS - Opportunities and prospects for cooperation with the EU-ETS
