EUA Procurement

What is EUA Procurement?

EU Allowance (EUA) procurement is a critical process within the framework of the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), which is designed to mitigate climate change by regulating greenhouse gas emissions.

European Union Allowances (EUAs) are permits that represent the right to emit one tonne of CO₂ or its equivalent. Under the EU ETS, maritime operators must acquire and surrender EUAs equivalent to their verified emissions each year. Failure to comply can result in significant penalties, making EUA procurement a vital aspect of environmental compliance for shipping companies.

Allocation of Allowances​

Allocation of Allowances

  • Free Allocation: Certain sectors receive allowances for free to prevent carbon leakage.
  • Auctioning: Most allowances are sold through auctions, generating revenue for EU member states.
Compliance

Compliance

  • Companies must hold enough allowances to cover their emissions.
  • If they exceed their allowances, they must purchase more or face penalties.
