Abstract

In order to reach climate neutrality by 2050 the EU needs to overcome challenges relating to accelerating innovation, creating infrastructure, redirecting investments, and fostering cross-sectoral integration. In this policy brief, we present key policy lessons relating to these four challenges based on seven case studies on transformative policies from the period 2005–2022 in different EU countries. Two themes reappear in many of our lessons. First, policies could be improved if a holistic approach to innovation was taken, with policymakers considering how new (innovative) technologies substitute (or phaseout) old technologies. Second, rather than trying to incentivize firms or citizens through monetary returns, governments could make progress towards climate neutrality by reducing the efforts required from firms and citizens to participate in the carbon neutrality transition, e.g., reducing administrative burdens.

欧洲转型政策的经验教训
为了到 2050 年实现气候中和,欧盟需要克服与加速创新、创建基础设施、调整投资方向和促进跨部门整合有关的挑战。在本政策简报中,我们根据 2005-2022 年期间不同欧盟国家的七个转型政策案例研究,介绍了与这四项挑战相关的主要政策经验。在我们的许多经验教训中,有两个主题再次出现。首先,如果对创新采取整体方法,让决策者考虑新(创新)技术如何替代(或淘汰)旧技术,政策就能得到改进。其次,与其试图通过货币回报来激励企业或公民,政府可以通过减少企业和公民参与碳中和转型所需的努力(如减少行政负担)来实现气候中和。

期刊介绍: Environmental Innovation and Societal Transitions serves as a platform for reporting studies on innovations and socio-economic transitions aimed at fostering an environmentally sustainable economy, thereby addressing structural resource scarcity and environmental challenges, particularly those associated with fossil energy use and climate change. The journal focuses on various forms of innovation, including technological, organizational, economic, institutional, and political, as well as economy-wide and sectoral changes in areas such as energy, transport, agriculture, and water management. It endeavors to tackle complex questions concerning social, economic, behavioral-psychological, and political barriers and opportunities, along with their intricate interactions. With a multidisciplinary approach and methodological openness, the journal welcomes contributions from a wide array of disciplines within the social, environmental, and innovation sciences.
