Inception impact assessment 2030 targets

UFE supports the European Commission’s proposal to speed up the GHG emission reduction by 2030, and to not postpone all the decarbonisation effort after 2030, in order to bring the target in line with the EU’s commitments under the 2015 Paris Agreement.
UFE suggests points to consider when preparing the I.A by the European Commission. One key point is that the impact assessment must propose scenarios of economic rebound that will not lead to a boom in fossil energy consumption as it was the case following the 2008 crisis.
