Question

Is free allocation based on my actual emissions?

Answer

No — on product benchmarks (top-10% most efficient EU installations) × your activity level × the CBAM factor. Beating the benchmark = surplus; lagging it = paying the gap already.

From our guide: EU ETS Free Allocation Table 2026–2034 — full context, charts and sources there.
