The European Union recently completed a spot carbon permit auction, selling 3.199 million permits at a price of 77.15 EUR per tonne. This activity provides a real-time look at the pricing dynamics within the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS). Tracking these auction results helps market participants understand the current cost of carbon and the demand for emissions allowances across European industry.

EU just auctioned about 3.2 million spot permits at 77.15 EUR per tonne. Just a quick data point on where the ETS price is sitting right now.
The price is steady, but the real question is how this aligns with the current linear reduction factor. If the supply tightens faster than the industrial transition, we will see these spot prices jump.
77.15 is a decent baseline. I wonder how much of this demand is coming from utilities hedging against future spikes versus actual compliance needs for this period.
