The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) is organising a public hearing to assess the economic impact of extending the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) to the maritime sector.
The hearing will focus on the risks of carbon and business leakage, and how these developments may affect port competitiveness and trade flows- particularly in smaller and peripheral EU Member States. The event will provide a platform for maritime stakeholders, economic experts, and EU institutions to discuss real-world implications and explore fiscal and strategic solutions to mitigate negative effects.
Speakers will include representatives from DG CLIMA, maritime and port organisations, as well as leading economists and policy analysts.
Malta’s strategic location and role in European maritime logistics make it an ideal setting for this timely discussion.
The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) is calling for a comprehensive EU strategy to speed up the move away from fossil fuels and the adoption of cleaner, renewable and affordable alternatives. This change will help the environment, make Europe more energy-independent, and create new business opportunities and jobs.
