EU ETS Review: bespoke scenario modelling
Reduce ambiguity. We quantify how EU ETS policy design shapes market balances and carbon prices – giving you real numbers to act on.
The EU ETS is undergoing a critical, multi-year review. Developing an effective stance requires knowing how specific legislative parameters interact and translate into supply trajectories that will affect the market – an assessment that is difficult without the right data and analysis.
For compliance companies, business associations, and governments shaping their positions, Veyt provides independent scenario modelling. Grounded in out bottom-up fundamental models and in-depth understanding of EU policy processes, our consulting services quantify how ETS policy design options affect market balances, abatement, and carbon prices. We replace generic assumptions and unreliable inputs, ensuring you know the impact on your investments, portfolios, and carbon costs.
Every policy lever moves prices differently. Potential changes are difficult to quantify. Veyt’s EU ETS consulting service translates each policy design choice into market balance, abatement outcomes and carbon price paths. Each engagement is structured around the client’s specific policy questions, review position, and decision timeline.
Confirm objectives, scope, and agree the policy design parameters in focus. Veyt guides the client on which design options are politically live, ensuring modelling effort is concentrated where it matters. Engagements can be scoped narrowly around a single design parameter. -such as exclusively on design options for the Market Stability Reserve (MSR) across numerous sensitivity runs or on multiple design parameters and combination scenarios.
Establish the baseline scenarios that bracket the plausible range of policy outcomes. For most ETS Directive review engagements, baselines are constructed around different cap trajectories defined through various Linear Reduction Factor (LRF) pathways for 2031-2040; these provide the analytical anchor for the subsequent sensitivity runs.
Test key policy design options such as Market Stability Reserve (MSR) parameters, carbon removals integration, free allocation phase-out and use of international credits – to quantify their impact on supply, market balance, abatement, demand disruption and carbon price across the chosen reference scenarios.
Combine selected sensitivities into an integrated ETS review scenario showing the bundled effect of multiple design choices. The results are delivered with Veyt’s analytical narrative in a structured call with the core project team, ensuring clients know the reasoning behind the numbers, not just the output.
Veyt contributed to the European Commission high-level stakeholder roundtable on the EU ETS review, providing a neutral modelling-based perspective, informed by scenario and sensitivity work on EUA prices, abatement and investment decision.
Veyt’s bottom-up fundamental models, making every assumption fully traceable, so clients reach a calibrated view fast and can defend it.

Presented in Brussels in partnership with ERCST, this whitepaper models alternative MSR design options and quantifies their impact on allowance supply, market balance, and price trajectories.
Our EU ETS team combines policy expertise, market analysis, and quantitative modelling to help organisations understand how regulatory change, allowance supply, emissions trends, and price developments affect their exposure.
Working closely with Veyt’s analysts, clients can assess the implications of EU ETS reforms, build clearer views on market balance and price risk, and translate complex policy and fundamentals into practical decisions for compliance, trading, procurement, and strategy.
Talk to our analysts about your EU ETS policy questions. Whether you need to assess a single parameter or model multiple scenarios across cap trajectories, MSR settings, allocation rules, carbon removals, or international credits, we can help quantify the market impact and translate policy options into numbers you can act on.
