Overview
Speakers
Regulations versus Incentives? Stick or carrot?
We all know that we will need to increase the use of new energies. But how do we meet targets for future energies in a difficult economic climate. What is the best framework to boost the use of future energies without deteriorating the competitive environment for business?
• What is the right approach - incentives or regulations or both?
• What is the role of Energy Performance Standards and Energy Labelling?
• How sustainable are such policies themselves? and how can we assure that the policies to be appropriately tailored to the stage(s) of the development of technology?
• How do we guard against changes of government and political u-turns, when businesses need long-term
stability?
