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.
