How will the revised CBAM, with its exemption of 80% of businesses, affect the EU's ability to meet its climate goals and promote green industrialization?

The EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), designed to level the playing field for energy-intensive products, is being revised to exempt 80% of businesses, impacting its effectiveness in promoting green industrialization and potentially hindering the EU's climate goals. The initial plan required reporting for imports exceeding €150, but this threshold will likely be raised, reducing its scope.

What are the potential long-term consequences of the EU's energy strategy, considering the role of natural gas as a transition fuel and the challenges in diversifying gas supplies?

The EU's current strategy risks undermining energy security and increasing electricity prices. The insufficient consideration given to the need for baseload power generation and the slow rollout of nuclear power could lead to supply shortages and heightened volatility in energy markets. The high cost of maintaining gas plants despite reduced usage adds another layer to this complex challenge.
