Environmental Financial Reform

With an environmental financial reform, we are using fiscal policy and taxation to redirect towards a sustainable and fair economy and society - by reducing subsidies that harm the environment and society, by placing our tax system on a broader basis and by making the consumption of resources and the burden on the climate more expensive. The additional revenue should be used sustainably for investments in the future and social justice.

Publicationabstract

The energy crisis has accelerated Europes need for a fast decarbonisation of its energy
supply. In order to achieve the European energy transition goals, strong incentives for the
investment into renewable energy projects need to be put in place. At the same time, the
energy market design must be adapted to sucessfully integrating the increasing shares of
renewable energy into the system, in a way that substitute fossil fuels as fast and efficiently
as possible.
