As the EU proposes tighter emissions caps and auctioning of allowances in Phase III of the EU ETS, Energy Intensive Industries must demonstrate their level of exposure to external competition in order to qualify for protection and avoid carbon leakage.

EII & Climate Change is a time-critical platform for high energy consumers and policy makers to come together and discuss the most effective ways to reach European emission limits, without negatively impacting on the global competitiveness of Energy Intensive Industries in Europe.
