EMISSIONS: Poland Seeks 3-year Delay in EU ETS2

EMISSIONS

Poland is pushing for a three-year delay in the implementation of the EU's ETS2 system, with discussions underway on how to mitigate its impact through national tax policies, according to Climate Minister Paulina Hennig-Kloska, cited by ISB News.

  • Additionally, Hennig-Kloska confirmed that work is underway at the EU level to postpone the ETS2 system, aiming to give people more time for necessary changes, such as thermal modernisation of buildings or switching heat sources.
  • In July 2024, the EC initiated infringement proceedings against Poland and 25 other EU countries for failing to fully implement the EU ETS2 provisions into national law.
  • The new ETS2 system is set to start in 2027 and will cover CO2 emissions from fuel combustion in buildings, road transport, and small industries not currently included in the existing EU ETS, according to the EU.
