Our expert, Noortje Crabbendam, will be speaking on Tuesday, 8 October, 15.00-15.20 CET, on the following topic, 'Fireside chat. CBAM! Setting off a new global carbon market'. The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is an essential part of the European Green Deal, regulating carbon-intensive products imported to the EU, such as cement, electricity, fertilisers, iron and steel. It will take full effect in 2026, but registration and reporting obligations started in 2023. How are foreign companies preparing to stay competitive? How are buyers working with suppliers to prepare? And could the mechanism, which aims to make organisations pay for emissions that their imports cause outside of the EU, spur carbon trading worldwide?
