The European Union’s (EU) Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) has introduced new compliance requirements for importers bringing certain goods into the EU. These regulations mean that UK exporters must provide accurate emissions data to support their EU customers in fulfilling their reporting obligations.
CBAM applies to carbon-intensive sectors, including:
• Cement
• Iron & steel
• Aluminium
• Fertilisers
• Electricity
• Hydrogen
To maintain a competitive edge and avoid trade disruptions, UK businesses must be prepared to accurately calculate and report emissions data associated with their exports.
