The European Commission has issued fresh guidance to support the implementation of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), focusing on verifiers, accreditation bodies, and operators. The new materials aim to provide greater clarity and consistency in the verification of embedded emissions under the EU’s carbon border regime.
The guidance also includes sector-specific information for iron and steel, aluminium, cement, fertilisers, hydrogen, and electricity. The Commission has further updated default emissions values for cases where verified actual emissions data is unavailable, providing operators with revised references for CBAM reporting and compliance. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
