Over 100 major European companies have expressed concerns that proposed reforms to the EU emissions trading scheme (ETS) could significantly increase costs for energy-intensive industries, jeopardizing investments and production. In a joint letter, companies like Covestro and Thyssenkrupp highlighted the challenges posed by high energy prices and global competition. They emphasized the need for a supportive investment environment to facilitate decarbonization. The European Commission's proposed ETS revision is set for a parliamentary vote in December. Recent agreements among EU member states aim to retain excess pollution certificates to prevent sudden carbon price spikes, responding to rising fuel costs due to geopolitical tensions.
