The registries for the EU Emission Trading System (EU ETS) record the holding of emission allowances and the transactions concerning those allowances, like the banking system does for money. The main types of transactions are: creation of allowances, free allocation, auctioning, trading, surrendering of allowances for compliance and their deletion. The registries also record installations and aircraft operators surrendering sufficient allowances to cover their verified emissions. |
