The ETS 2 is set to replace German emissions trading in 2027. However, this could lead to price fluctuations, which could ultimately also jeopardize the climate targets. This is why scientists have presented ways to prevent this.

The European Emissions Trading System for buildings and transport (ETS 2) will be introduced in 2027. Experts believe that linking it to a national minimum carbon price could stabilize the price level and thus improve predictability for private households and companies. This is according to a study by Green Budget Germany (GBG) and the Institute for Applied Ecology. The scientists examine how the German emissions trading system and ETS 2 could be merged after its introduction.
