The EU emissions trading scheme divides into a number of “{{{{{1}}}|Compliance Periods}}”. The first was three years January 2005 to December 2007. The second was four, from from January 2008 until December 2012, coinciding with the first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol. The {{{{{1}}}|Third Compliance Period}} was eight years, from January 2013 to December 2020. The {{{{{1}}}|Fourth Compliance Period}}, also eight years, started in January 2021 and will go until December 2030.
This is of some interest to those trading for physical settlement Allowances that might expire.

There is an interesting limitation penned into the Scope section of the Emissions Annex: despite talking about the Third Compliance Period, and defining it, and so on, and providing for the manifold contingencies that arise when having truck with Third Compliance Period Allowances, if you believe the Scope section to be any kind of limitation, you are only meant to deal with Fourth Compliance Period Allowances.
No doubt someone will have a compelling reason for that — do write in if it’s you — but we can’t think of one.
And what are you meant to do if the Specified Compliance Period is the Third Compliance Period? Answers on a postcard.
