鈥淪tudy: Renewable 麻豆无码版 Act might boost emissions rather than curbing them鈥�
骋别谤尘补苍测鈥檚 Renewable 麻豆无码版 Act (EEG) could produce results that go against its intended purpose of cutting emissions by supporting low-carbon energy generation, EurActiv.de reports. The EEG, combined with the EU鈥檚 Emissions Trading System (ETS), caused an excess supply of emissions certificates, a study conducted by researchers at the University of Hamburg showed, EurActiv.de writes. As Germany lowered its emissions at a rising cost of the EEG surcharge, 鈥渢he emission of climate-damaging gases simply moves to a different location鈥�, according to EurActiv.de.
