System integration - a new key theme for energy policy - Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment
Climate neutrality requires that we stop using fossil fuels and increase the use of intermittent renewable energy. Different energy systems should be strongly interlinked to secure the functioning of energy systems and improve their efficiency, with due consideration for the large-scale needs of industrial production. However, we must also beware of the pitfalls on the long path towards sector integration.https://tem.fi/en/-/system-integration-a-new-key-theme-for-energy-policy -
Climate policy aims to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In the European Union, these emissions are reduced by emissions trading scheme, the obligations of effort sharing sectors and the promotion of renewable energy and energy efficiency. Other relevant tools are land-use change and sinks in forests, which have their own regulations. Is the EU’s tool kit consistent and optimal in economic terms?https://tem.fi/en/-/miten-optimoida-eu-n-energia-ja-ilmastotoimet-
