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-

The negotiations on the EU’s Clean Energy Package are getting close to being completed in a number of respects. In the quite heated trilogues in early summer agreement was reached on the directives concerning both energy efficiency and renewable energy.

What are the key challenges?https://tem.fi/en/-/vahvaa-kunnianhimoa-ja-saantelyn-sudenkuoppia-energiatehokkuuden-ja-uusiutuvan-energian-uudet-eu-velvoitteet

As an interim target for reaching climate neutrality by 2050, the EU wants to tighten the emission reduction target from 40% to at least 55% by 2030. Although it seems that the EU will exceed the original target, this constitutes a major change. In particular, the way emission reductions are implemented has a major impact on how much the transition will cost and how these costs will be distributed between countries.https://tem.fi/en/-/fit-for-55-what-are-the-best-ways-to-cut-emissions-

With measures to boost the economy after the coronavirus crisis, public funding for the green transition will come from many directions.

For the EU to become a leader in climate policy, strong coordination between the EU institutions and the member states is required. Despite its uninspiring name, the Governance of the Energy Union may turn out to be a key instrument in the EU energy and climate policy; perhaps more important than was initially expected. In addition to the specific obligations, the importance the member states and instituti...https://tem.fi/en/-/eu-n-energia-ja-ilmastopolitiikan-hallintomalli-hioo-kyntensa-tama-vuosi-nayttaa-vahvasti-suunt-2

Recently published scenarios show that we have a bumpy road ahead to climate neutrality. These scenarios also help us to grasp the magnitude of the climate challenge. To meet the commitments of the Paris Agreement on climate change, we need to take determined action to reduce greenhouse gases. Although we are currently nowhere near the desired level globally, Finland is pursuing ambitious climate goals, both nationally and in its role as the Presidency of the Council of the European Union.https://tem.fi/en/-/polku-kohti-ilmastoneutraaliutta-tuoreet-skenaariot-kuvaavat-haasteen-kokoluokkaa
