Reporting Period
The reporting period is the specific timeframe during which you collect emissions data for your installation to calculate the carbon embedded in your CBAM products.
For example, if your reporting period is 2024, all data - like electricity use, fuel consumption, and goods produced - must refer to that year. Emissions caused by these activities are then averaged over the selected period to determine your tCO2e per unit of goods.

Click the dropdown and select your type of reporting period
Your reporting period is, by default, twelve months, specifically the (European) calendar year. For example, when your EU clients submit CBAM reports in 2024, they should use your emissions data from 2023; when they submit reports in 2025, they should use your data from 2024, and so on.
Specify the Year
If you choose the calendar year as your reporting period, you only need to specify the year.
Enter the start date of your reporting period (only if your reporting period is not a calendar year)
