Subsidies to the Power Sector: Europe’s Best Kept Secret?

Sustainability Consult’s CEO, Kathryn Sheridan, moderated a heated debate at EWEA yesterday. The event ‘Subsidies to the power sector: Europe’s best kept secret?’ brought together speakers from the renewable and fossil fuel sectors with economists from the European Commission and OECD. Fossil fuel subsidies is a pressing issue since the G20 made a pledge to phase out market distorting subsidies. We supported the Global Subsidies Initiative on this issue some years ago.
