Abstract

This report examines different facets of the EU energy and climate architecture for 2030 and 2040. It discusses potentials and weaknesses with regard to the EU’s transformation to climate neutrality. We thereby look both at some of the key policy instruments in place, and their potential overlap and interaction, as well as overarching challenges.
