#52026XC02957EU ETS Market Stability Reserve: 2025 Allowances in Circulation
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
🇬🇧 English
The Commission publishes the 2025 total number of EU ETS allowances in circulation, a figure used to decide how many carbon allowances will be moved into the Market Stability Reserve from September 2026 to August 2027. This affects companies covered by the EU Emissions Trading System, carbon market participants, and compliance teams tracking allowance supply and price signals. The notice is mainly technical, but it matters because the reserve mechanism can reduce auction supply when there is a surplus, tightening the carbon market.
