Changes in EU ETS Regulation

Dear Valued Customers,

 We wish to inform you about significant upcoming changes to the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) regulation that will impact our operations and, consequently, our EU ETS surcharges.

 What's Changing?

Starting in 2025, the EU ETS regulation will evolve to account for 70% of our emissions, compared to the current 40% in 2024. This substantial increase in the percentage of emissions covered by the EU ETS will have a direct impact on our cost structure.

 Expected Impact

As a result of this regulatory change, we anticipate an increase of approximately 75% in our current EU ETS surcharge amounts. Please note that this estimate does not consider potential fluctuations in CO2 prices, which could further influence the final surcharge amounts.

Q1 2025 amounts for the full trade coverage impacted by EU ETS will be available by December 1st on: https://www.cma-cgm.com/ebusiness/tariffs/charge-finder

 Why This Matters

The EU ETS is a cornerstone of the EU's policy to combat climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions cost-effectively. The changes in the regulation reflect the EU's commitment to achieving its climate goals and ensuring a sustainable future.

We are committed to transparency and will continue to keep you informed about any further developments. 

If you have any questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact your local CMA CGM sales representative.

Yours sincerely,
