Towards appropriate and legally consistent proportionality in the accounting of biogenic CO2 capture under the EU ETS Annex to the questionnaire completed by the German Cement Works Association (Verein Deutscher Zementwerke, VDZ) for the ETS1 review of the European Commission.
Stellungnahme Vorschlag für ein CO2-Grenzausgleichssystem Der Verein Deutscher Zementwerke e.V. (VDZ) begrüßt die Initiative der EU-Kommission zur Schaffung eines CO2-Grenzausgleichssystems (Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, CBAM).

VDZ views the proposed legislation by the Europan Commission on the EU climate target for 2040 with mixed feelings: On the positive side, the proposal shows a little more pragmatism with regard to recognised measures for achieving the target, the handling of negative emissions in the EU ETS, and the recognition of CO2 reductions outside the EU.
Regarding the proposed 5 % tolerance for systematic differences between emissions covered by third-country carbon pricing systems and CBAM boundaries, the current wording lacks clarity concerning its practical application (Recital 7; Annex I, Section 4.2). It remains unclear whether this flexibility would favour or disadvantage non-EU installations compared to EU ETS installations.
A central principle of CBAM must be to establish a strong incentive for importers to report their verified real embedded CO2 emissions by defining highly conservative default values. If standard values are set low or average, importers of highly emission intensive products will simply rely on these defaults rather than disclosing verified data.
VDZ thanks for the opportunity to provide additional input on the development of a robust European CO infrastructure and welcomes the EU Commissions intention to establish, if necessary, a new legislative initiative with rules for an EU CO2 market and a CO2 infrastructure. This shall also consider, that time is of essence. Appropriate measures should at best speed-up, not hinder nor delay a fast built-up.
