Details about this catalogue item

The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is an instrument implemented by the European Union to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and address carbon leakage. It aims to ensure that imported goods are subject to a carbon price equivalent to the carbon price of domestic production in the EU. CBAM affects the iron and steel sector by putting a price on emissions associated with iron and steel produced in countries outside the EU, with the goal of encouraging sustainable practices and reducing carbon footprint.

Course description

Thanks to this eLearning module, you will become familiar with the CBAM and with the transitional period, reporting, methodology and IT system involved in this period applied to the iron and steel sector.
Moreover, you will be presented a real case scenario of reporting in the CBAM Transitional Registry for the iron and steel sector.
This is one of a series of 6 courses related to each of the sectors affected by CBAM regulation in the transitional period.

Target audience

This course is addressed to any person who manages the production of CBAM goods in third country installations or imports these goods, as well as trade partners and competent authorities or anyone who needs to understand and work with CBAM obligations in the iron and steel sector.
