National Emissions Trading Registry back online

Bern, 27.04.2011 - Having been offline for a couple of weeks for maintenance work to improve security, the Emissions Trading Registry is available again with immediate effect.

Access to the Swiss Emissions Trading Registry was blocked on 14th February 2011 after security controls revealed that the system was vulnerable. Shutting down the system enabled the relevant federal authorities, in collaboration with third-party companies, to set in place the security measures required immediately. As a precautionary measure, the FOEN also changed all passwords. No damage was caused to the Emissions Trading Registry.

The Emissions Trading Registry is now back online. All registry clients will receive new passwords and all transactions are possible again during business hours.
