UK ETS Currently the UK’s main measure to mitigate carbon leakage risk is the system of free allocation under the UK Emissions Trading Scheme (UK ETS). The UK ETS puts a price on greenhouse gases emitted by domestic producers, through a “cap-and-trade” system, in which total carbon emissions and allowances under the scheme are capped.
