Friday, 28 May
15:30 - 16:45 CEST

In July, the European Commission is due to review key climate and energy legislation in an effort to make sure EU policy is aligned with the updated 2030 climate targets of the European Climate Law. This “Fit-for-2030 Package” will include revision of key policies such as the Emissions Trading System (ETS), and the Effort Sharing Regulation (ESR), as well as the proposal for a Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), and directives related to renewable energy and energy efficiency. Particularly the changes to the ETS and ESR, will be hotly debated as they will play a critical role in making sure the EU can achieve ambitious climate action and direct national climate legislation.

Greens are calling for transparency, accountability and fairness in this process – but what does that mean in practice? What changes are expected at the EU level and what will this mean for national climate action? What do we need to be pushing for at the EU and national levels to make sure our climate policy is on track?

Join us for an engaging workshop on the topic with leading experts to discuss what the Fit-for-2030 package entails, what we’re demanding, and why it matters.
