Will the EU expand the scope of the CBAM?

By the end of the transitional period of the CBAM (end 2025), the Commission will undertake a full review of the implementation of the CBAM. Using data collected during that period, the review will, amongst others, look carefully into the possibility of extending CBAM to other goods and sectors covered by the EU ETS at risk of carbon leakage (see Article 30(2) of the CBAM Regulation). An extension of the CBAM scope requires a legislative proposal from the Commission followed by an amendment of the CBAM Regulation to be adopted by the European Parliament and Council.
