The ETS cost per ton is 90€ [1]. Apparently the budget cost of this program was 2.5 G€[2]. 2500M/1.8M gives 1400 €/ton. The article doesn't seem to comment anything about this poor ratio, did I count wrong or did the article just ignore the 20x efficiency delta to market rate emission reductions?
(Of course free train travel is great and being able to do it while reducing emissions instead of icnreasing them is excellent in itself, but still the reduction headline would call for analysis)
