The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero leads UK Emissions Trading Scheme (UK ETS) policy, a carbon pricing mechanism covering emissions from power, industry, and aviation sectors across the UK and devolved nations. Current policy priorities include treatment of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), potential linkage with the EU ETS to align climate ambitions and avoid trade friction, and future market design. The scheme operates as the UK's primary carbon market following EU exit.
