The Polish fuel and energy sector needs a courageous and coherent action plan. “The current, unique circumstances allow us to design and implement a new deal for the Polish energy sector – one that
About the project:
The project aims to improve sectoral climate policies addressing the two non-ETS sectors: transport and buildings in the CEE region and on the European scale, through the exchange of best practices (climate policy frontier) and by highlighting the scale and pace of further climate action needed to meet targets set by the Paris Agreement.
The project will facilitate promotion of best practices for climate action in the selected non-ETS sectors by (i) increasing the awareness of national policymakers on readily available, transferable solutions already present in the region, and (ii) fostering discussion on implementation strategies that can enable the region to efficiently reduce emissions from these sectors to achieve the emissions pathways compatible with the Paris Agreement.
The goals of the project will be achieved in several stages:
- identification and promotion of current best policy practices within CEE region,
- assessment of the gap between the best practices and the level of ambition necessary to reach the “well below 2°/1.5°C” goal,
- identification and promotion of policy options needed to bridge the gap.
The outcomes will support policymakers in all CEE countries covered by the project in reaching the “regional frontier of excellence” in climate action, while also making it consistent with the level of ambition required to limit the global worming well below 2°C. Although the project will focus on the Central and Eastern European region, it will also create a channel for knowledge exchange between the CEE countries and other European states.
