In this episode of Carbon Trading Chronicles, we dive deep into the intricate relationship between the gas and carbon markets, featuring insights from Seb Kennedy, energy journalist and creator of the newsletter Energy Flux. Seb and Riham offer a unique perspective on how geopolitical tensions have amplified risk premiums in gas markets and, in turn, influenced European carbon pricing. They also explore the growing correlation between gas prices and carbon markets, the opaque nature of hedge fund activity, and the strategic maneuvering of gas storage operators seeking to balance regulatory mandates with market realities.

Delving deep into the political landscape that shapes the EU ETS market, they analyse how the latest official communication and the imminent elections could disrupt the status quo, potentially diluting the Green Deal.

2040 seems like a way too broad time horizon, but as companies start to think about their long-term investment strategies is worth to start thinking: how will the EU ETS look like 17 years from now?
In the absence of reforms, the actual system would force the decarbonization of EU ETS covered industries by as soon as 2039-2040. Is this a likely scenario? It doesn’t seem feasible for industries like aviation or cement production.
With the help of Julia Michalak, EU policy Director at IETA we will try to disentangle the potential changes that could be implemented in the system in order to meet the decarbonization goals while maintaining competitiveness in the EU industry.
