Abstract: Emissions in the EU ETS have declined by 34% between 2013 and 2023. We here show emission dynamics by sector and Member State. The decline was mostly driven by emission reductions in the power generation sector, where emissions decreased by 47%. Member States with the highest reductions mostly benefited from large reductions in their power sectors. Emissions in other sectors (except aviation) also declined in recent years.
