Emissions Trading:

Emissions trading, also known as cap-and-trade, is a market-based approach to controlling pollution by creating a system where companies can buy and sell emission allowances.

Our firm provides legal counsel and guidance to companies participating in emissions trading, helping them understand their obligations under the EU ETS, comply with emission reporting requirements, and navigate the complexities of carbon pricing and trading mechanisms. We assist clients in managing their carbon footprint, optimizing their emission reduction strategies, and leveraging emission allowances to minimize compliance costs and achieve their sustainability goals in accordance with EU and national emission reduction targets.
