Climate Analytics, Ecologic Institute; Berlin
Obwohl sich die EU ehrgeizige Ziele gesetzt hat, gibt es in vielen Bereichen große Umsetzungslücken. Die Untersuchung der erfolgreichen Umsetzung der Klimapolitik in anderen Ländern kann die EU-Politik ergänzen und verbessern und dazu beitragen, diese Umsetzungslücken zu schließen. In dieser Bewertung werden mehrere Fallstudien aus verschiedenen Ländern und Regionen untersucht, die sich auf acht Themenbereiche verteilen: Strommärkte, Innovation, Ausstieg aus fossilen Brennstoffen, Stromspeicherung, Entwicklung des Schienenverkehrs, Personenverkehr auf der Straße und Effizienz in Gebäuden.
Die Fallstudien und Argumente rund um diese Modelle sind entsprechend mit einem der vier Themenbereiche verknüpft: Investitionen, Innovation, Integration und Infrastruktur, die die wichtigsten Herausforderungen darstellen, die die EU auf ihrem Weg zu einem Netto-Null-Emissionsziel bewältigen muss. Die Bewertung zeigt, dass die Vielfalt der Erfahrungen, mit denen die Länder konfrontiert sind, wertvolle Einblicke in die Art und Weise bietet, wie politische Entwicklungen erfolgreich waren und was die EU von ihnen lernen kann.
Ein Policy Brief fasst die Ergebnisse aus 17 Fallstudien von Nicht-EU-Ländern zusammen.
