Consultation response on EU Governance Regulation

EIA welcomes the chance to inform the European Commission’s revision of the Regulation on the Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action. This revision provides a timely opportunity to modernise the European Union’s (EU) climate governance framework for the post-2030 period and to align it more fully with the level of ambition required by the Paris Agreement.

EIA’s response focuses on three critical issues to the integrity and effectiveness of the revised Governance Regulation: avoiding deregulation, preserving the EU Methane Regulation, and  strengthening Member States planning, reporting and monitoring of fossil fuel consumption and production.
