Going beyond default intensities in an EU carbon border adjustment mechanism
Open accessAbstract
As part of its Green Deal, the European Union is currently preparing a “Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism” (CBAM). A CBAM applies carbon pricing to imports with the objective of mitigating concerns about carbon leakage. To reduce complexity, it is likely

A BCA exclusively based on fixed benchmark values and not allowing importers to challenge the default by demonstrating superior carbon efficiency would probably violate WTO principles by treating imported products less favorably than domestic products.
“A BCA that is exclusively based on fixed benchmark values (option 1, above), and does not allow importers to challenge the default by demonstrating superior carbon efficiency (option 3), would probably violate WTO principles by treating some imported products less favorably than domestically produced products (143).”

The burden of demonstrating a lower carbon footprint falls on exporters, which may be easier for large registered business entities than for small or medium-sized enterprises in a developing country.
“However, the burden of such demonstration ultimately falls on the exporters, which may be easier for organized and registered large business entities compared to small or medium-sized enterprises in a developing country (143).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
