Amendment 187 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 10
(10) Existing mechanisms to address the risk of carbon leakage in sectors or sub- sectors at risk of carbon leakage are the transitional free allocation of EU ETS allowances and financial measures to compensate for indirect emission costs incurred from GHG emission costs passed on in electricity prices respectively laid down in Articles 10a(6) and 10b of Directive 2003/87/EC. However, free allocation under the EU ETS weakens the price signal that the system provides for the installations receiving it compared to full auctioning and thus affects the incentives for investment into further abatement of emissonly covers the risk of relocation outside the Union and not the import of carbon intensive products into the Unions.

Amendment 208 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 11
(11) The CBAM seeks to replacecomplement these existing mechanisms by addressing the risk of carbon leakage in a different way, namely by ensuring equivalent carbon pricing for imports and domestic products. To ensure a gradual transition from the current system of free allowances to the CBAM, the CBAM should be progressively phased in whileOnce the CBAM has fully demonstrated its effectiveness in equalising CO2 costs between imported and domestic products, free allowances in sectors covered by the CBAM areshould be progressively phased out. The combined and transitional application of EU ETS allowances allocated free of charge and of the CBAM should in no case result in more favourable treatment for Union goods compared to goods imported into the customs territory of the Union.

Amendment 218 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 11 a (new)
(11a) To prevent carbon leakage both in the Union and in third country markets, goods of Union origin that are subject to the CBAM and that are exported to third countries and territories should benefit from an export adjustment. That export adjustment should continue to incentivise Union producers to reduce their emissions and should apply until third countries adopt carbon prices and equivalent measures that are comparable to those in the Union, with special attention to interrelated carbon leakage protection measures, taking into account the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities, in the light of different national circumstances.

Amendment 265 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 13
(13) As an instrument to prevent carbon leakage and reduce GHG emissions the CBAM should ensure that imported products are subject to a regulatory system that applies carbon costs equivalent to the ones that otherwise would have been borne under the EU ETS, resulting in an equalisation of carbon costs between imported domestic products. The CBAM is a climate measure which should prevent the risk of carbon leakage and support the Union’s increased ambition on climate mitigation, while ensuring WTO compatibility.

Amendment 308 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 17
(17) The GHG emissions to be regulated by the CBAM should correspond to those GHG emissions covered by Annex I to the EU ETS in Directive 2003/87/EC, namely carbon dioxide (‘CO2’) as well as, where relevant, nitrous oxide (‘N2O’) and perfluorocarbons (‘PFCs’). The CBAM should initially apply to direct emissions of those GHG from the production of goods up to the time of import into the customs territory of the Union, and after the developmendt of a transition period and upon further assessmentthe relevant methodologies by the Commission, as well to indirect emissions, mirroring the scope of the EU ETS.

Amendment 368 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 29
(29) The goods under this Regulation should be selected after a careful analysis of their relevance in terms of cumulated GHG emissions and risk of carbon leakage in the corresponding EU ETS sectors while limiting complexity and administrative burden. In particular, the actual selection should take into account basic materials and basic products covered by the EU ETS with the objective of ensuring that imports of energy intensive products into the Union are on equal footing with EU products in terms of EU ETS carbon pricing, and to mitigate risks of carbon leakage. Other relevant criteria to narrow the selection should be: firstly, relevance of sectors in terms of emissions, namely whether the sector is one of the largest aggregate emitters of GHG emissions; secondly, sector’s exposure to significant risk of carbon leakage, as defined pursuant to Directive 2003/87/EC; thirdly, the need to balance broad coverage in terms of GHG emissions while limiting complexity and administrative effort. Specific attention should also be paid to the risk of market distortions between the different sectors covered by the CBAM.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 52
(52) The Commission should evaluate the application of this Regulation before the end of the transitional period and report to the European Parliament and the Council. The report of the Commission should in particular focus on possibilities to enhance climate actions towards the objective of a climate neutral Union by 2050. The Commission should, as part of that evaluation, develop the relevant methodologies to apply the CBAM indirect emissions, and initiate collection of information necessary to possibly extend the scope to indirect emissions, as well as to other goods and services at risk of carbon leakage, and to develop methods of calculating embedded emissions based on the environmental footprint methods47 . __________________ 47Commission Recommendation 2013/179/EU of 9 April 2013 on the use of common methods to measureto ensure an equalisation of CO2 costs between imported and cdommunicate the life cycle environmental performance of products and organisations (OJ L 124, 4.5.2013, p. 1)estic products.

Article 10 a (new)
Article 10a Export adjustment to reduce the risk of carbon leakage and associated increases in global emissions 1. An export adjustment shall be granted to operators of installations subject to Directive 2003/87/EC for goods manufactured in the EU listed in Annex I and that are exported to third countries and territories other than those listed in Annex II, Section A. 2. The amount of the export adjustment shall be equal to the Euro value of the CBAM certificates published in accordance with Article 22(2) during the calendar week of export of the exported goods, multiplied by default values based on the average emission intensity of the 10 percent best performing Union installations for that type of good, multiplied by tons of goods falling within the scope of paragraph 1 of this Article. That calculation shall take also into account EU ETS benchmarking methodologies already established for which the denominator is not expressed in tons of goods, for example refined products and steam-cracking, as well as other alternative methodologies, to the extent applicable. 3. Notwithstanding paragraph 2, where goods within the scope of paragraph 1 are produced in Union installations with an emission intensity that is lower than the default value for that type of product as set pursuant to paragraph 2, the amount of the export adjustment shall be calculated based on the actual embedded emissions per tonne of product calculated in accordance with the methodology of points 2 and 3 of Annex III. 4.The export adjustment shall be reduced to reflect the extent to which EU ETS allowances continue to be allocated free of charge in accordance with Article 10a of Directive 2003/87/EC to operators of installations producing the goods listed in Annex I in the Union. 5. The Commission is empowered to adopt implementing acts, in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 29(2), establishing methodologies to define the amount of the export adjustment in accordance with paragraph 2 and 3 of this Article. 6. The Commission is empowered to adopt delegated acts, in accordance with Article 28, defining the procedures and requirements to grant an export adjustment under paragraph 1 of this Article in accordance with paragraphs 2, 3, and 4 of this Article and the methodologies defined in accordance with paragraph 5 of this Article. 7. When drafting the implementing and delegated acts referred to in paragraphs 5 and 6 respectively, the Commission shall give all interested parties and third countries an opportunity to comment. 8. The Commission shall regularly assess, on a third country or group of countries basis, whether Union producers continue to require the export adjustment of paragraph 1 in order to prevent the risk of carbon leakage. In doing so, the Commission shall monitor and consult with third countries on the extent to which they adopt carbon prices and equivalent measures comparable to that in the Union, with special attention to interrelated carbon leakage protection measures, taking into account the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities, in the light of different national circumstances. On the basis of this assessment, by [ end of transitional period] and every five years thereafter, the Commission shall present a report on the progress made by third countries and the extent to which a Union export adjustment continues to be necessary. Where appropriate, the Commission shall present to the European Parliament and to the Council a legislative proposal suspending the export adjustment or introducing any necessary modifications.
