The European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) is one of the most significant climate policies shaping how industries account for carbon emissions. For many in the transport sector—airlines, shipping companies, and road hauliers—it can feel complex and difficult to navigate. To make it clearer, here are answers to some

The European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) relies on one critical foundation: trust in the accuracy of emissions data. Without precise measurement and transparent processes, the integrity of the system would collapse. This is where Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) comes in. MRV ensures that every tonne of carbon

Transport is at the heart of global connectivity, yet it remains one of the largest contributors to greenhouse gas emissions. The European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) is transforming this sector by embedding carbon pricing into its economic framework. By assigning a financial value to emissions, the EU ETS

The European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) has long been a cornerstone of the region’s climate policy. As its scope evolves, transport operators face both new challenges and fresh opportunities. For aviation, maritime shipping, and road haulage, the latest developments signal a decisive shift in how carbon emissions are
