On 1 October 2023, the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) entered into application in its transitional phase.
It is the EU’s flagship measure to deal with carbon leakage – the outsourcing of production or supply chains to states where weaker environmental or climate regulations are in place.
When fully in place from January 2026 the system will impose charges on goods which originate from sources which do not operate equivalent climate regulations.
In addition, the UK is proposing its own CBAM system from 1 January 2027 and this course will also outline the key points of this new system.
