Title: Investigating optimal allocation of green recovery funds in the EU. 2021 EU Conference on modelling for policy support: collaborating across disciplines to tackle key policy challenges
Date: November 2021
Short description: The pandemic had dramatic economic consequences in the EU: despite significant public interventions, more than 1.8 million jobs were lost between September 2019 and September 2020. As fiscal stimulus measures have been and continue to be announced, policymakers can ensure that the short-term stimulus points the economic recovery in a sustainable direction in the long term; in doing so, they must consider the trade-off between these goals.

Title: Multi-Objective Evaluation of Renewable Technology Subsidy Portfolios from COVID-19 Recovery Packages
Date: June 2021
Short description: To support the green transition, national recovery and resilience plans should allocate at least 37% of investments towards battling climate change and be aligned with the updated target of the European Green Deal of 55 emissions reduction by 2030. This study aims to optimise the impact of the proposed fiscal program and the budget allocated towards the “green” transition in terms of jobs created in the energy sector and further reduction of GHG emissions.

Title: Allocation of European green COVID-19 recovery packages to mitigation emissions and create jobs in crisis years
Date: June 2021
Short description: To support member states’ economic recovery from the effects of COVID-19, the EU has mobilised financial resources as part of the long-term budget of 2021-2027 (European Commission, 2020a). Among the proposed recovery efforts, the EU launched the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) to provide €672.5 billion of financial support to Member States in the coming years (European Commission, 2020b).

Title: Identifying optimal COVID-19 recovery packages: a robust IAM-portfolio analysis of renewable energy technological subsidisation
Date: July 2021
Short description: The pandemic has had significant impacts on the European economy, with approximately 1.8 million EU citizens losing their jobs between September 2019 and September 2020. Towards facilitating a swift and sustainable recovery, the EU launched the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) to provide €672.5 billion of financial support to Member States in the coming years. In line with the European Green Deal and climate efforts, 37% of investments in national plans requesting RRF financing must focus on a “green” transition.
