CBAM Carbon Tax
Is Your Business Ready for Europe's Carbon Border Tax?
Future-proof your exports with proactive carbon management.
Companies face new costs, reporting requirements, and potential market exclusion unless they reduce emissions. Clean producers gain competitive advantages while high-carbon manufacturers must adapt or lose EU market access. The costs are directly determined by the EU's carbon price through its Emissions Trading System (ETS), with CBAM certificates currently priced at around €70 per tonne of CO2. These prices are forecast to more than double to almost €150 by 2030 and reach nearly €200 by 2035, making carbon efficiency increasingly critical for maintaining competitiveness in the EU market.

Affected Industries
Click on any sector to learn more about its CBAM impact
cbam.sectors.steel
Steel production involves high-temperature processes that generate significant CO2 emissions through coal combustion and chemical reactions.
cbam.sectors.cement
Cement manufacturing releases CO2 both from fuel combustion and the calcination of limestone, making it a major emission source.
cbam.sectors.aluminum
Aluminum smelting requires enormous amounts of electricity, typically generated from fossil fuels, resulting in substantial carbon emissions.
cbam.sectors.fertilizers
Fertilizer production, especially nitrogen-based fertilizers, involves energy-intensive processes that contribute significantly to carbon emissions.
cbam.sectors.electricity
Electricity generation from fossil fuels is a major source of CO2 emissions, varying greatly depending on the energy mix used.
cbam.sectors.hydrogen
Hydrogen production methods vary widely in carbon intensity, from high-emission steam reforming to low-emission electrolysis using renewable energy.

Expanding Scope
CBAM's reach will grow to include chemical industries, advanced manufacturing, and all downstream sectors that rely on carbon-intensive materials. This domino effect ensures that carbon leakage cannot occur by simply moving production to different industries or regions.
