CO2 burden sharing: Germany faces billions in costs
Due to insufficient climate protection in the transport and building sectors, Germany faces costs of between €15 and €30 billion by 2030, according to experts. The sum results on the one hand from the rules of the EU burden-sharing regulation, which regulates reduction targets for sectors not subject to emissions trading (ETS) for energy and industry. On Tuesday, the German Expert Council for Climate Issues also presented its opinion on the German government's draft 2023 climate protection program.
