What they argued
National Grid welcomes the opportunity to provide its views to the EC consultation on the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) downstream extension, anti-circumvention and rules on electricity emissions. The current EU CBAM legislation will lead to many unintended and negative consequences for electricity trade, notably for trading electricity between the EU and the UK.
We welcome the opportunity to provide our views to the European Commission consultation on the draft Implementing Act (IA) on carbon prices paid in third countries under the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM).
We welcome the opportunity to provide our views to the European Commission (EC) call for evidence on the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) provisions on the carbon price paid in a third country. The current EU CBAM legislation will lead to many unintended and negative consequences for electricity trade, notably for trading electricity between the EU and the UK.
We welcome the opportunity to provide our views to the consultation on the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) methodology for the definitive period starting on 1 January 2026. The current EU CBAM legislation will lead to many unintended and negative consequences for electricity trade, notably between the EU and the UK.
National Grid Ventures welcomes the EC’s proposal for a revised Regulation on Trans-European Networks for Energy (TEN-E) as one of the key policy tools to facilitate the achievement of climate neutrality goal by 2050 for both the EU and UK - infrastructure.
NGV welcomes the opportunity to provide its views to the EC consultation on the EU energy security architecture. Energy networks will be a critical enabler for the clean energy transition. However, the scale and pace of investment needed to meet the UK and the European decarbonisation targets will be unprecedented.
