MPs claim pros of carbon border adjustment mechanism outweigh cons, arguing that putting a price on imports could play a major role in reducing the UK's consumption emissions. MPs on the Environmental Audit Committee have urged the UK government to start work on a carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) that could ensure goods imported to the UK face a price on their carbon emissions equivalent to the levy raised on domestic products through the emissions trading scheme (ETS).

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
