CCSA signs joint letter calling for linkage between UK & EU Emissions Trading Systems

The CCSA has signed a joint letter alongside more than 40 other industry bodies, calling for linkage between the UK and EU Emissions Trading Systems.

The letter, sent to UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, sets out the urgency and importance of linking the two emissions trading systems ahead of COP26 – due to be hosted in Glasgow in November 2021.

The letter states that “A linkage between the UK and EU ETS would align decarbonisation pathways, create a stable environment for investment into low-carbon alternatives, and show continued UK leadership in tackling climate change.”
