Experience from the EU ETS - Peter Vis, European University Institute
1. EU Emissions Trading System:
cap-setting, allocation,
evolution & use of revenues
Mr Peter Vis, Senior Research Associate,
School of Transnational Governance at EUI
2. Cap-setting:
each phase has
had its own cap
2005-2007 (โpilot-phaseโ)
2008-2012 (1st Kyoto
commitment period)
2013-2020 (2nd Kyoto
commitment period)
2021-2030 (Paris NDC1)
4. Cap = total
allocation
+ imported
offsets
allowed
Bottom up with cap on offsets
โข 1st & 2nd phases (2005-2012)
โข Consistency with Kyoto Protocol
Top down with offsets phased
out
โข 3rd & 4th phases (2013-2030)
โข Economic modelling โ cost-efficiency
โข Consistent with international
commitments
5. Absolute cap
set in relation
to 2005
(approx. 2
Billion EUAs),
thereafter
subject to
annual
reduction
2013-2020
โข Cap to deliver 21% reduction
by 2020 compared to 2005
2021-2030
โข Cap to deliver 43% reduction
by 2030 compared to 2005
7. โข Start Monitoring, Reporting & Verification
before cap-setting & allocation
โข Have modelling capability to help
โข EU started sub-optimally, but it got us going
โข Good decision to have a pilot-phase (2005-
2007) with a โfirewallโ (no banking)
Early lessons on cap-
setting
8. Allocation
methods โ
variance
over time
Free โ historic emissions
โข 1st & 2nd phases (2005-2012)
โข National Governments, public
scrutiny & Commission approval
Free โ benchmarking
โข Harmonised across EU
โข 10% best performing in sector
(2013-2030) set benchmark
9. What is a
benchmark?
Administratively driven allocation
based on efficiency
Example of benchmarking for an
industry: Cement
โข Benchmarks not imposing emissions limit, just initial free
allocation. Based on 2007-2008 production data.
โข No need to buy allowances for the most efficient
installations: rewards early action
10. Allocation
methods โ
variance
over time
Auctioning to power sector
โข 3rd & 4th phases (2013-2030)
โข EU-wide auctions open to all โ
quantities determined centrally
Exceptions for less wealthy
โข Free allocation for 10 Member
States
โข Revenue foregone to be
reinvested in modernising energy
system
11. Structure of allocation in 2021-30 (Phase 4)
(15.5 billion allowances cumulative, worth โฌ1 trillion at
current prices of EUR 70)
Auctioning by
Member
States
51.5%
Free
allocation for
industry
40.9%
Innovation fund - 2.6%
Modernisation fund 2%
Free allocation buffer 3%*
* Allowances dedicated for auctioning that may be converted
12. Who โtradesโ?
โข Governments donโt trade: only allocate
for payment
โข Businesses do trade if they want to
โข Trade between each other
โข Via financial intermediaries
โข On exchanges

13. Evolution
Data quality improves
Learning-by-doing
We have tended towards greater
harmonisation (not for
environmental reasons)
Allocation is distributional (for
environment โfreeโ is as good as โfor
paymentโ)
14. Revenues
Only if allocation is for
payment
Provides a โdouble
dividendโ for policymakers
Funds innovation
Fairness & just transition
