The effect would be further strengthened with clear and transparent information on the costs and the repercussion on all those involved.

Carbon pricing at Repsol

In the absence of global measures, Repsol has established its own internal carbon price that we apply to all new investments we make. Within the European Union, values are set at $70/t in 2025 and go up to $100/t after 2030. In other countries, we've set the price at $60/t after 2025.
