Proposal for a regulation
Recital 12 a (new)
Recital 12 a (new)
(12a) While this regulation addresses the risk of carbon leakage on the EU market, it is essential to develop an export adjustment mechanism to avoid the risk of EU exports being replaced by more carbon intensive goods or by goods that are not subject to any carbon pricing scheme. Having that in mind the Commission should present a report to the European Parliament and the Council by the end of the transitional period, accompanied if needed by a legislative proposal with WTO compatible solutions, to address the carbon leakage risk on export markets.

Recital 49 a (new)
(49a) Given the structure of the European electricity market, the provisions laid down in Articles 10a(6)and 10b of Directive 2003/87/EC play a crucial role in ensuring the competitiveness of EU, electro-intensive industries against carbon leakage. These particularities result in an embedded carbon cost even when the electricity being consumed by an installation is decarbonised.
