The key drivers of carbon prices
When
From: 25-June-2020
To: 25-June-2020
In response to rising global temperatures, the EU Emissions Trading Scheme is seen as the flagship policy to drive European decarbonisation at least cost. As a result, carbon prices are now a critical driver of wholesale electricity prices – a trend that is only set to increase over the coming years.
In a webinar on 25 June 2020, AFRY explored where future carbon prices may be heading by discussing the key drivers impacting prices under the EU ETS, including:
- the impact of COVID-19 and the role of the Market Stability Reserve;
- the sensitivity to decarbonisation target levels; and
- the contribution of other factors ranging from coal phase-out to the European Green Deal.
The slide pack and recording are available below.
