As part of the policy updates foreseen under the European Green Deal, the European Commission released on March 4th an Inception Impact Assessment (IIA) on the Revision of the Energy Taxation Directive.
The Commission received feedback from 180 industry representatives, think tanks, NGOs, and private citizens from around the EU, who submitted comments detailing their opinions and suggestions on the IIA. In addition to submitting our own feedback paper (available here), ERCST has synthesised other stakeholders’ feedback, highlighting the suggestions and their main differences and commonalities.
This meeting is an opportunity for stakeholders to discuss the feedback received ahead of the public consultation period expected in Q2. ERCST will present a synthesis of selected feedback received for the ETD IIA and will moderate a discussion among representatives from some of the organisations that provided feedback to the IIA.
