The Finnish Climate Change Panel report: Reforming EU climate policy is an opportunity for Finland

The latest report of the Finnish Climate Change Panel discusses the future of the European Union climate policy. Achieving the 2040 climate target, primarily through EU-level emissions pricing, creates economic opportunities for Finland. Based on the results of the report, the Finnish Climate Change Panel provides policymakers with recommendations for developing EU emissions trading system.

Pricing of emissions promotes cost-efficiency

The Finnish Climate Change Panel’s latest report assesses options for developing the EU climate policy framework beyond 2030 with a focus on the EU Emissions Trading System. The report assesses four scenarios for the EU post-2030 climate policy based on economic modelling and legal analysis. It provides information on the impacts of different policy options on Finland and, more broadly, across the EU. Based on the analysis, the Finnish Climate Change Panel provides policymakers three key recommendations for developing EU Emissions Trading System.

How is climate neutrality achieved?

The memorandum Finland’s Carbon Neutrality Pathway provides an overview of the gap between the current situation and Finland’s climate neutrality goal. It assesses the development of emissions and carbon sinks up to the year 2035 and lists possible sector-specific measures that could make it possible to achieve climate neutrality by 2035. Key messages are available in English.
