Introducing UKCBAM

The UK Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, or UKCBAM, is a new policy that’s starting to get a lot of attention, and for good reason. It has the potential to change how carbon intensive products are traded into the UK, with knock on effects for businesses, supply chains, and producers both at home and overseas.

In this report, Thea and Cathye unpack what UKCBAM actually is, why it’s being introduced, and what it could mean in practice. They look at how it may affect organisations operating in the UK as well as international suppliers, offering a clear explanation of a policy that’s likely to have a growing impact on the way we trade and tackle carbon emissions.
