EU ETS allocated allowances and emissions for stationary installations 2005-2024
In 2024, the total volume of allocated allowances for all stationary installations was million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCOâ‚‚e). The volume of freely allocated EU-ETS allowances was *** MtCOâ‚‚e that year. Stationary installations include installations such as power plants, refineries, and industrial factories.
The EU-ETS is a carbon credit market used to mitigate climate change, and one of the tools to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
