description This thesis examines the administrative impacts of the emissions trading system for fuels (ETS2) on regulated entities. The research applies a mixed methods approach, combining quantitative descriptive analysis with qualitative thematic analysis. Data was collected through an online questionnaire, with responses received from 34 regulated entities. The aim was to find out what challenges companies face in complying with the administrative obligations of ETS2 and how they are preparing for the regulatory change. The results show that especially smaller entities perceive the regulation as burdensome. However, unclear guidance, time pressure, and resource constraints were broadly reported across company sizes. Levels of preparedness varied significantly, and some respondents felt the regulation was disproportionate to their business scale. The results are analyzed through Kurt Lewin’s three-phase model of organizational change. Tämä tutkielma tarkastelee polttoaineen päästökauppajärjestelmän (ETS2) hallinnollisia vaikutuksia säännellyille yhteisöille. Tutkimus perustuu mixed methods lähestymistapaan, jossa yhdistyvät määrällinen kuvaileva analyysi ja laadullinen teema-analyysi. Aineisto kerättiin sähköisellä kyselylomakkeella, johon vastasi 34 säänneltyä yhteisöä. Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli selvittää, millaisia haasteita yritykset kohtaavat täyttäessään ETS2:n mukaisia hallinnollisia velvoitteita ja miten ne valmistautuvat muutokseen. Tulosten mukaan erityisesti pienet toimijat kokevat sääntelyn kuormittavaksi, mutta myös ohjeistuksen epäselvyys, aikataulupaineet ja resurssivaje nousivat laajalti esiin. Yritysten valmistautumisaste vaihteli huomattavasti, ja osa vastaajista koki sääntelyn epäsuhteiseksi toiminnan laajuuteen nähden. Tuloksia tarkastellaan Kurt Lewinin kolmivaiheisen muutosteorian näkökulmasta.
