Description

The Carbon Pricing Score (CPS) measures the extent to which countries have attained the goal of pricing all energy-related carbon emissions at certain benchmark values for carbon costs, across all sectors, including emissions from the combustion of biomass. The more progress that a country has made towards a specified benchmark value, the higher the CPS. For example, a CPS of 100% against a EUR 60 per tonne of CO2 benchmark means that the country (or the group of countries) prices all carbon emissions in its (their) territory from energy use at EUR 60 or more.
