SUMMARY:Nuclear energy and gas in the EU Taxonomy
DESCRIPTION:The EU Taxonomy was introduced in 2020 as a reporting tool. The declared goal of Taxonomy is to direct the flow of private capital to finance transition towards climate neutrality. It is a flagship project of the sustainable finance strategy adopted by the European Commission as a part of the European Green Deal. \nThe Taxonomy\, being a product of the regulation – not of market participants – became a label provoking political tensions. Using this label to describe economic activities became a matter of principle\, rather than a market instrument. The illustration of this phenomenon is the political debate about qualifying gas and nuclear energy as “sustainable” activities under the Taxonomy. \nBy July 2022\, the European Parliament formally reacted to the Complementary Delegated Act (CDA) which\, under some conditions\, qualifies gas and the nuclear energy as “green” activities. \nThe panelists explored the subject-matter along those guiding questions: \n\nHow the geopolitical situation affects the role of gas and nuclear energy in the climate transition?\nHow the CDA will affect the access to finance for gas and nuclear energy projects?\nIs there an impact on renewables?\n\nAgenda    ERCST Slides
