Consultation description
In March 2022, the Authority consulted on a wide range of changes to the scheme, with the aim of ensuring that it can play a key role in reaching net zero targets, while supporting businesses in the transition. This included a consultation to recognise non-pipeline transport of CO2 to geological storage in the ETS.
In the July 2023 Authority Response, the Authority confirmed its intention to recognise NPT by enabling UK ETS participants who use NPT for CO2 storage purposes to make carbon subtractions.
The purpose of this consultation is to provide more detail and consult on the regulatory framework for the recognition of NPT in the ETS.
