The session presented how the EU’s new carbon pricing system for buildings and road transport, the ETS2, is set to impact households in central and eastern Europe, and what policies are needed to ensure fairness and protect vulnerable groups.
ETS2 and the Social Climate Fund: the German context
Germany accounts for almost a quarter of CO₂ emissions in the transport and buildings sectors in the EU, which are covered by ETS-2. The faster emissions are reduced domestically, the more stable the European CO₂ price will remain and the lower the risk of sudden cost increases.
