To ensure that your business relationships with your customers participating in the EU ETS continue to run smoothly in the future, it is essential to deal with the issue of double charging of fuel emissions in the context of the nEHS.

We help you to examine the structure of your fuel customers with regard to the issue of double charging and show you concrete steps on how to proceed in order to keep the additional administrative work as low as possible on the one hand and to ensure on the other hand that additional contractual agreements are not to your disadvantage.

A prerequisite for the implementation of the deduction procedure is, of course, that the BEHG manager knows which of its customers are participants in the EU ETS.

In the next step, bilateral supplementary agreements under civil law to the existing supply contract must be concluded with each of these customers pursuant to Section 11 EBeV 2022. DEHSt does not provide a template for this type of agreement. In this supplementary agreement, it is important for you to specify the delivery quantity from which the deductible emission quantity results. Issues such as differential quantities, forwarding of quantities to other (EU ETS) installations, tax-exempt quantities play a role here. On the other hand, it must be clearly defined to what extent changes in the originally forecast deduction quantity lead to a transfer of allowance costs and, if so, at what price.
