Bruegel · A green industrial policy for Europe

The European Green Deal will profoundly transform the EU economy, fostering major shifts from brown to green industries. Given the scale of this paradigmatic change, developing a strong EU green industrial policy represents a key element to make the European green transformation socio-economically sustainable in the long-run.

With this event, Bruegel is pleased to launch a new blueprint on this important topic, co-authored by its scholars Simone Tagliapietra and Reinhilde Veugelers: A green industrial policy for Europe.

The blueprint A green industrial policy for Europe is produced with the financial support of the European Climate Foundation.

Green certificates: a better version of green bonds

"The current design of green bonds means they aren't fulfilling their potential. We propose an alternative: issuance of regular bonds with attached green certificates that ensure earmarking for green purposes. The new design would reduce financing costs and in turn would provide incentives to start a greater number of environmentally-friendly projects."
