EU ETS by year, estimated
| Year | Ships | EU ETS t | Allowances | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 16 | 144,354 | 101,048 | €8,601,216 ≈ US$9,654,865 |
| 2024 | 18 | 422,121 | 168,848 | €14,372,375 ≈ US$16,132,991 |
Allowances = the reported EU ETS emissions × the share to surrender for the year (2025: 70 %, due 30 September 2026; 2024: 40 %, due 30 September 2025; Directive 2003/87/EC Art. 3gb, 12(3)), at €85.12 each. The company's verified total in the Union Registry decides what it has to surrender; ice-class reductions it claims are not deducted here. When a ship changes company, the previous company files a partial report for its time with the ship (Regulation (EU) 2015/757 Art. 11(2)); this page adds the reports this company filed. EU ETS t: t CO₂.
