CBAM, ETS, transport and CO₂ – BSP’s key proposals in the EU legislative process

The past weeks have been marked by intense legislative work in the European Union.

The European Commission is addressing a very broad spectrum of issues, yet Business & Science Poland focuses on those areas most crucial for Polish enterprises. Polish industry needs clear and predictable regulatory frameworks. CBAM and ETS must safeguard competitiveness, transport investments should lower costs, and simplifying environmental legislation will give companies the space to grow faster. Equally important are stable frameworks for the CO₂ market and infrastructure – without them, the transition will not sustain either jobs or production in Poland.

Together with our member companies, we have prepared and published a set of position papers that strengthen the voice of Polish business in the EU law-making process.

We encourage you to explore them:

Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) – downstream extension, anti-circumvention and rules on electricity emissions

Sustainable Transport Investment Plan

Technical Updates of the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) State Aid Guidelines

Streamlining and Simplifying Environmental Legislation as an Opportunity to Strengthen the Competitiveness of the European Economy

Business & Science Poland’s call for a comprehensive regulatory and investment framework for CO₂ infrastructure and market in the EU
