The right to sell excess GHG emission allowances to other Member States also means that emissions can be reduced in the places where it is cheapest to do so EU wide. In addition, the use of emission allowances in non-ETS sectors reduces the cost of emissions reduction. This option should, however, be open to all Member States.
