UK Emissions Trading Scheme

The UK Emissions Trading Scheme (UK ETS) is the carbon emission trading scheme of the United Kingdom.[1] It is cap and trade and came into operation on 1 January 2021 following the UK's departure from the European Union.[2] The cap is reduced in line with the UK's 2050 net zero commitment.[3]
