🔥 LEAK: MEP Peter Liese's draft report goes big on CDR! 🔥

👀 As expected, the EU Parliament's Rapporteur on the Emission Trading System Revision Peter Liese is pushing for significant changes to the Commission's proposal.

A Contexte leak of the [soon to be published] draft shows how far Liese wants to go:

➡️ Start date in 2029 instead of 2031

➡️ Biochar added to the eligible pathways alongside DACCS and BioCCS with a 20% cap

➡️ [Uncapped] additional allowances to be auctioned to cover a potential price gap

✅ And much more. This is very much in line with the CDR Policy Scoop episode we did with Liese earlier this week.

🧐 One big question mark I still have: Liese had advocated for an uncapped, direct integration of CDR. In his draft, he is making changes to Article 14(1a), adding DACCS with a phrasing that seems to allude that only this method shall be integrated directly and without limits. Although it is not 100% clear as embedded in the own-use for operator section.

Highly recommend listening to our Scoop with Peter Liese to understand his rationale behind these suggested changes.
