Australia considers CBAM to address carbon leakage

  • The Australian Government has announced a review on whether to introduce a carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) in Australia.
  • The CBAM would apply a “carbon tariff” to imports from overseas, in certain circumstances.
  • An evaluation of policy options and the feasibility of an Australian CBAM are likely to be finalized by October 2024.
  • Businesses should now consider the potential implications of a CBAM on their business operations.
