Recent Developments

The Cabinet greenlit the draft Climate Change Bill which creates a national policy body and legal framework for a national carbon tax and ETS.

Coverage

Carbon taxation will apply to products with high greenhouse gas emissions during use, notably fossil-fuel-based products, as specified in the annex to the draft Act. The emissions trading scheme (ETS) will apply to industrial processes, covering Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. DCCE will study how the ETS can be used in conjunction with carbon taxation to reduce regulatory burdens and avoid overlap.
