WHAT IS THE CARBON BORDER ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM (CBAM)?

CBAM, or The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, is a policy tool designed to tackle carbon leakage and ensure a level playing field for industries that face carbon pricing regulations. It aims to address the disparity between domestic industries subject to carbon pricing and their foreign competitors who are not. CBAM works by imposing an additional cost on imported goods based on the carbon footprint associated with their production.

At Tunley Environmental we provide comprehensive CBAM support to help your business navigate these complex regulations. 

Reasons behind the implementation of CBAM:

  • Prevent relocation of carbon-intensive industries to countries with lax environmental regulations
  • Reduce global carbon emissions by incentivising cleaner technologies among foreign producers
  • Protect domestic industries from unfair competition
  • Encourage the adoption of sustainable practices worldwide
