Emissions trading: Germany announces interim volumes of allocations for third trading period

Some 1.4 billion emission certificates distributed to 1,814 installations will be allocated free of charge in Germany between 2013 and 2020.

Germany submitted its so-called NIMs List to the European Commission on 7 May 2012. read more
