The “SBCE X-Ray”, prepared by the Brazilian Business Council for Sustainable Development (CEBDS), offers a detailed analysis of the recently approved Brazilian Emissions Trading System. The document explores the main features of the SBCE, which adopts the “cap-and-trade” model to limit greenhouse gas emissions, promotes the trading of permits and encourages sustainable practices.

With a gradual implementation, the system seeks economic efficiency, robust governance and integration with national and international climate policies. In addition, the report highlights the creation of the Central Registry, the inclusion of voluntary carbon credits and the opportunities for Brazil to lead the global climate agenda.
