It aims to apply a tax on the import of carbon-intensive goods to avoid \u201ccarbon leakage,\u201d which refers to the relocation of production to countries with less strict environmental regulations. It is part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/commission.europa.eu\/strategy-and-policy\/priorities-2019-2024\/european-green-deal_fr\">european green deal<\/a>, which aims for carbon neutrality by 2050.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-742e6da elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"742e6da\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How does CBAM work?\n\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-195a6d6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"195a6d6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>CBAM works by applying a carbon tax at the eu\u2019s borders on imports of carbon-intensive products, such as steel, aluminum, cement, fertilizers, and electricity. This mechanism requires importers to purchase CBAM certificates corresponding to the <a href=\"\/nl\/greenhouse-gases\/\">co2 emissions<\/a> related to the production of imported goods. The goal is to align the carbon cost of imports with that of goods produced within the eu, reducing the competitive advantage of countries without strict carbon regulations.<\/p><p>Unlike the european union emission trading system (EU ETS), where european companies receive emission quotas to trade, CBAM specifically targets imports.

By imposing a carbon tax on imports, it encourages non-european companies to adopt more sustainable production practices. The mechanism also helps preserve the competitiveness of european companies by balancing the costs associated with strict environmental regulations within the eu.
