The president-elect aims to re-join the Paris Agreement and has announced ambitious energy transition plans. Showcasing just how high exp ectations are\, the European Commission has already drawn up plans for a c limate-friendly technology alliance and a wider green trade cooperation. H owever\, this new partnership might not be all smooth sailing. Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ spat s like the one on Nord Stream 2 are set to stay. EU intentions for a carbo n price on imported goods will be difficult to implement in a way acceptab le to both sides. And their aim for leadership in climate-friendly technol ogies – Tesla’s new Gigafactory in the heart of the automobile’s birthplac e in Germany is a case in point – is a source of conflict where the U.S. a nd the EU are already in fierce competition with countries like China.Two days before the inauguration of Joe Biden as U.S. president\, Clean Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Wire hosts an event exclusively for journalists\, where researchers and p olitical and business analysts share their views on what a change in U.S. leadership means for international climate policy and transatlantic cooper ation on the path to net-zero emissions.
