Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) 

The Centre for Social and Economic Progress is delighted to host the upcoming seminar on Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) on Wednesday, December 6, 2023 from 3:30-5:30 pm. Attendees may join in person at the CSEP Auditorium (6 Jose P Rizal Marg, 2nd Floor, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi - 110021) or via Zoom. The seminar will also be streamed live on RU-vid.
About the event
The rollout of EU’s CBAM is likely to have a significant impact on India’s exporting sector. It is possible that other countries and groupings may also implement their own version of CBAM, which will further intensify the impact on India’s manufacturing exports and potential. Research is showing that CBAM will significantly impact costs, exports and profits on specific sectors, and the economy in general. At the same time, there is evidence of how countries and firms across the world are taking actions to better prepare for this new form of trade barrier designed to accelerate the movement towards a low-carbon economy.
The seminar will have participants from large, medium and small industry, policymakers, as well as researchers in the CBAM space. This interaction will contribute to the creation of an ecosystem that can better inform the key participants on how best to address the impending challenge.
