The EU aims to be the first climate-neutral continent by 2050 and cut emissions 55 % by 2030. But it still hasn’t set the 2035 and 2040 targets required by the Paris Agreement and its own Climate Law. This publication answers 10 key questions and offers five proposals for a “net-zero package” to strengthen and build on the current Fit-for-55 measures.
The Clean Industrial Deal is the new masterplan to make EU industries competitive with clean energy in view of becoming the first climate-neutral continent. However, the decision on the EU’s 2040 climate target is still pending. There are also concerns that the simplification of key legislation from the European Green Deal will just water down its level of ambition. Meanwhile, industry and agriculture need more tailored support and investment security for their transition. Will the existing and the planned EU laws be effective for reaching our climate goals? Which policy tools will work well? And where will we need to sharpen them?
