The FitFor55 legislative package sets ambitious targets to make Europe thefirst climate-neutral continent by 2050. Within it, the EU Emission TradingScheme is mandatory for energy operators with an installed capacity higherthan 20 MW, calculated by considering units with a rated thermal inputunder 3 MW. The paper highlights the impact of the Emission TradingScheme on the investment choices made by district heating systems operators,considering both current regulations and the potential extension of theEmission Trading Scheme to encompass lower energy capacities. The analysisconcerns the simulation of four revamping scenarios (two fueled bynatural gas and two partially by renewables) within an existing districtheating system located in Italy. The economic analysis shows that an extensionof the Emission Trading Scheme alone is not effective in hinderingscenarios based on natural gas production. A reform of the power exchangemarket is necessary to drive decarbonization and encourage investment inrenewable generation plants.
