The European Energy Exchange (EEX) updated the 2022 auction calendar. The change is due to a request of Bulgaria to auction additional volumes initially scheduled for free allocation for electricity generation under Art 10c of the EU ETS Directive. This results in an increase of the CAP3 EU EUA auction volume by 5.16 million EUA in total in the year 2022. The increase will become operative from 21 March 2022.
All other auctions, including auctions for Germany, Poland, Northern Ireland and auctions of EU Aviation Allowances remain unchanged.
Please see below an overview of the initial and new volume:
