Trudna sztuka kompromisu: postępy prac nad zmianą dyrektywy 2003/96/WE
The Difficult Art of Compromise: Progress on Amending Directive 2003/96/EC

Summary/Abstract: In December 2019, the European Commission presented a new energy and climate strategy, the European Green Deal, aiming for the European Union to achieve climate neutrality by 2050. An intermediate goal of the strategy is to reduce the EU economy’s emission levels by 55% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels. To achieve these goals, on July 21, 2021, the European Commission presented a legislative proposal package called „Fit for 55,” which, among other things, proposed a revision of Directive 2003/96/EC on the restructuring of the Community framework for the taxation of energy products and electricity. Despite several years of work on the draft amendment to the directive, member states have not been able to reach a compromise.
