The EEX Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism Reference Price

The EEX Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism Reference Price (CBAM) — a weekly benchmark index calculated as the volume-weighted average of EUA primary auction clearing prices conducted at EEX within each week, published in EUR and additionally in several non-EUR currencies chosen to reflect the EU's most important trade partners in CBAM-covered sectors (iron and steel, aluminium, cement, fertilisers, hydrogen). Delivered as end-of-day CSV files daily at 22:00 CET/CEST via File Cloud, or as a real-time REST API feed, with history back to 2019; sold with an explicit internal-use versus external-use (vendor/redistribution) usage tier

Dataset card

Type: not stated
Format: Tabular — daily CSV files delivered through File Cloud (end-of-day), plus a REST API real-time option; documentation and sample files published for machine integration
Volume: Small by count, high by consequence — a weekly index across a handful of currency series with daily file publication and history since 2019, i.e. a few thousand data points in total. The value is benchmark status and continuity, not volume
Users: Subscriber count undisclosed, but est. hundreds to low thousands of institutional seats across energy, commodity-trading, steel and compliance clients (inferred: an annual auto-renewing subscription sold through a self-service exchange webshop with defined internal and external usage tiers)
History: 3 years
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Active and structurally expanding — the index is live on the exchange's webshop with daily publication, and its addressable demand grows mechanically as CBAM phases from 2.5% of exposure in 2026 toward 100% by 2034, widening the population that must price carbon on imports
Launched: 2023 for the CBAM reference price specifically — created for the CBAM transitional regime that began in October 2023 — while the underlying EEX environmental auction and index franchise runs back to the EUA primary-auction history cited from 2019
