AI: What this vote decides Written by AI from the official text — check the source

Parliament set out its position on a proposed regulation that would create a Temporary Decarbonisation Fund to support operators in energy-intensive sectors facing a remaining carbon leakage risk, complementing the EU Emissions Trading System and the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism.

Parliament adopted this position at first reading, which means it can now negotiate with the Council before the law is final.

Parliament also called on the Commission to refer the matter back to it if the proposal is replaced or substantially amended.

AI: The text in short Written by AI from the official text — check the source

Parliament's amended version of the Commission proposal for a regulation establishing the Temporary Decarbonisation Fund. The Fund would give temporary financial support in 2027-2029 to operators and downstream operators in carbon-intensive sectors facing a remaining risk of carbon leakage, financed from 25% of revenues from the sale of CBAM certificates.
