The European Union is concluding the transition period of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM)<\/em> \u2014 the carbon border adjustment system. Starting January 1, 2026, the mechanism will be fully implemented, covering imports of electricity from the Energy Community countries, including Ukraine.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the Energy Community Secretariat published the CBAM Readiness Tracker 2025<\/em><\/a>, which highlights steady progress by member states in decarbonization and alignment with the EU energy market.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cCBAM should serve as a bridge to the European Union, not a barrier,\u201d
emphasized Artur Lorkowski, Director of the Energy Community Secretariat.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u26a1 What Changes in 2026<\/h3>\n

CBAM enters its final implementation phase:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    Electricity importers will submit annual reports on CO\u2082 emissions associated with imports;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    A mechanism for payment of embedded emissions through the purchase of CBAM certificates will take effect;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    No exemptions or simplified regimes are foreseen for electricity under the Omnibus I<\/em> package.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Although CBAM legally applies to EU importers, its impact will be directly felt by Ukrainian electricity exporters \u2014 as the cost of carbon certificates will be integrated into contracts and influence final pricing.<\/p>\n

    \ud83d\udd0b Ukraine\u2019s Readiness for the New Market<\/h3>\n

    Ukraine is already developing a Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRVA) system and preparing a pilot launch of the national Emissions Trading System (ETS) in 2026.
    This is a crucial step toward potential future CBAM exemption, contingent upon full market coupling with the EU.<\/p>\n

    According to the Energy Community, in 2024 the carbon intensity of member states\u2019 energy sectors fell by 11%, while installed renewable energy capacity (excluding large hydropower) increased by more than 50%, reaching 5.1 GW \u2014 largely due to competitive auctions.<\/p>\n

    \ud83c\udf31 European Integration Through Climate Policy<\/h3>\n

    CBAM is increasingly evolving into a driver of clean energy and regional integration.
    For Ukraine, this represents not only a challenge but also a major opportunity \u2014 to accelerate its energy transition, develop a domestic carbon market, and strengthen its position as a reliable EU partner in climate and energy security.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
