During the transitional period, the default emission factors for electricity provided by the Commission are generally used. However, actual emission factors can be applied if specific conditions are met, such as the existence of a direct technical link or a power purchase agreement.
Market-based certificates like Guarantees of Origin or Renewable Energy Certificates cannot be utilized to justify the use of actual emission factors. The CBAM Transitional Registry will provide clear guidelines on the acceptable factors for determining emissions.
Dubrink’s CBAM compliance software contributes to regulatory standards by providing access to approved emission factors, ensuring accurate reporting and compliance.
