Response to EU emissions trading system for maritime, aviation and stationary installations, and market stability reserve - review

24 Jun 2025

We encourage the Commission to ensure full inclusion of municipal waste incineration under the EU ETS with the following considerations: (1) Both power and heat from MWI should be covered without free allowances, aligning with ETS coverage of the buildings sector in 2027. (2) All CO fossil emissions and non-fossil emissions should be reported and priced; biogenic CO has the same climate impact and excluding it creates inconsistencies and loopholes. (3) The cascading principle must be respected: ETS design should reinforce, not undermine, recycling and waste prevention. (4) A 20 MW threshold may allow avoidance; a lower threshold (e.g. 10 MW) aligned with the IED would ensure broader coverage. These points are essential to safeguard the environmental integrity of the EU ETS and promote a circular economy.
