Carbon Market & 2040 Climate Objectives
The latest compromise draft from the Danish Presidency reopens discussions around the EU's 2040 climate target. It proposes expanding the use of international carbon credits and raises questions about the future role of the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS).
More ambitious climate targets and a revised ETS could lead to increased carbon pricing and operational costs. This pressure is likely to drive investments in cleaner technologies and improved energy efficiency.
Strengthen your Scope 1 and 3 emissions monitoring and introduce an internal carbon price to anticipate future costs and support low-carbon decision-making across operations and procurement.
Sustainable Finance & Reporting – Omnibus Package (CSRD & CSDDD)
Debates are ongoing around the Omnibus proposal revising CSRD and CSDDD. The revision includes mandatory climate transition plans and integration of Scope 3 emissions where significant.
Stricter requirements on ESG reporting, supply chain due diligence, and transition plan alignment with the Paris Agreement will raise expectations on data quality and emissions traceability across the value chain.
Map all emissions across your supply chain, streamline ESG data collection, and build robust transition plans incorporating material Scope 3 emissions.
Decarbonized Mobility – HDV CO₂ Standards & Vehicle Dimensions
The automotive industry is calling to accelerate the revision of HDV CO₂ standards (initially planned for 2027) and of the directive on vehicle weights and dimensions. CountEmissionsEU has entered trilogue negotiations, with key implications for emission reporting in transport.
