SUBISDY SCHEME COMPENSATION INDIRECT COSTS OF EU-EMISSION TRADE SYSTEM (INIDRECTE EMISSIEKOSTEN)
Environment related objective
To compensate industry for increased electricity costs that are caused by a cost pass-through of CO2-costs that arise from the participation of power plants in the EU emissions trading scheme (EU ETS)
For some industry sectors these increased electricity costs have a substantial effect on their global competitiveness, causing production and/or investments in these sectors to shift to regions outside the EU that are not subject to a similar carbon policy regime.
