The document discusses proposed fixes to the Emissions Trading System (ETS) in the European Union. It describes how the economic crisis led to a surplus of emissions permits, weakening the ETS. It proposes "backloading" as a short-term solution, which is delaying the auctioning of some permits to raise carbon prices and encourage renewable energy investment. Long-term solutions like removing the surplus permits and setting ambitious emissions reduction and renewable energy targets are needed for a structurally sound ETS.
