EU Emissions Trading System: heat and fuel benchmark values for 2026–2030

17 July 2026  |  New legislative proposal

What's next: Parliament's lead committee and the Council's working party examine it in parallel. No deadline applies at this stage; most files take one to two-plus years.

Summary: This proposal aims to update the standard reference values used to measure heat and fuel efficiency under the EU's emissions trading system for the years 2026 to 2030. The revised benchmarks would establish new targets for how much heat and fuel different industries should use compared to the best performers in their sector.
