Time to stop the EIB's carbon subsidies

Insight by Stephen Tindale, 20 December 2012

The European Investment Bank (EIB) lends half its annual energy pot to efficiency and renewables. But it is still lending to coal. This is inconsistent with climate policies.
Le trappole del Energy Bill varato dal governo britannico

Opinion piece by Stephen Tindale

How to create a single European electricity market - and subsidise renewables

Policy brief by David Buchan, 26 April 2012

Renewable energy needs subsidy. But different national subsidy schemes threaten energy integration. Schemes should be harmonised, even if the amount of subsidy continues to differ.

Green, safe, cheap: Where next for EU energy policy?

Report by Katinka Barysch, Stephen Tindale, 09 September 2011

Is the EU's policy on renewables damaging the single market? Why do Europeans not use energy more efficiently? Is the EU's gas policy too obsessed with Russia?

Insight by Stephen Tindale, 12 October 2010
