Summary

Generated

This revision increases the annual intake rate of the Market Stability Reserve from 12% to 24% from 2023 until 2030, aiming to reduce the surplus of emission allowances more quickly and strengthen the carbon price signal. It directly affects all operators under the EU Emissions Trading System, particularly energy-intensive industries and the power sector.
