Swedish allowances shall not be resold – Swedish Radio

The government announces the EU to Sweden scraps allowances, which will be over by 2020. It says Åsa Romson in at the climate summit in Lima.

– There are allowances Sweden and the EU may be when making a much more ambitious climate work than you thought you dared to do earlier in the forecast about the Kyoto Protocol. It is good that we are from the government is clear that if there is a surplus, which it will be, we will not sell it out. We’ll tuck away allowances, so that it can not go to emissions in other countries, says the climate and environment minister Åsa Romson in Lima.

Each allowance gives the owner the right to emit one tonne of carbon dioxide.

How many allowances, which are now withdrawn from the market, it is difficult to say because it depends on how well companies and others succeed in their climate work.

Earlier, the government has indicated that surplus allowances for the years until 2010 to be scrapped. Now the surplus rather than being pulled out of the market by 2020.

The last government has been selling allowances, although Annie Loof recently said she regretted it.
