EU plans to reinforce carbon system stability with market reserve amendment

( November 27, 2025, 11:54 GMT | Official Statement) -- MLex Summary: A targeted amendment to the market stability reserve rules for the EU’s new emissions trading system for road transport and buildings was proposed on Thursday. The European Commission plan implements measures announced by climate chief Wopke Hoekstra in October, including doubling allowance injections if carbon prices rise above 45 euros per metric ton and bringing auctions forward to generate earlier revenues. The change does not require reopening the Emissions Trading System Directive, but must still be approved by EU member states and the European Parliament before taking effect.Press release follows.
