How much Russia will pay the EU in the form of a carbon tax

The EU carbon tax could cost Russian suppliers of iron, steel, electricity, aluminum and fertilizers at least €1.1 billion a year, RBC calculated using a methodology confirmed by the Ministry of Economic Development. The tax, which the European Commission introduced in mid-July, will gradually increase from 2023, and will be fully operational from 2035.

The European Commission noted, without naming individual amounts, that Russia would have to pay more carbon tax than other countries. Moscow is going to prove that the tax does not meet the standards of the World Trade Organization. The Ministry of Economic Development noted that the calculation presented by RBC is conservative.
