Select OECD-countries
In 2020-2021, in response to the COVID 19 pandemic, governments in Select OECD-countries have committed at least USD 511.30 billion to supporting different energy types through new or amended policies, according to official government sources and other publicly available information. These public money commitments include:
- At least USD 202.29 billion for unconditional fossil fuels through 237 policies (154 quantified and 83 unquantified)
- At least USD 46.22 billion for conditional fossil fuels through 62 policies (54 quantified and 8 unquantified)
- At least USD 54.43 billion for unconditional clean energy through 272 policies (211 quantified and 61 unquantified)
- At least USD 149.48 billion for conditional clean energy through 262 policies (221 quantified and 41 unquantified)
- At least USD 58.88 billion for other energy through 82 policies (52 quantified and 30 unquantified)
By energy type, Select OECD-countries committed at least USD 204.19 billion to oil and gas (at least USD 179.70 billion to unconditional oil and gas and at least USD 24.49 billion to conditional oil and gas).
In addition, Select OECD-countries committed at least USD 7.83 billion to coal (at least USD 3.01 billion to unconditional coal and at least USD 4.81 billion to conditional coal).
Further, Select OECD-countries committed at least USD 1.27 million to hydrogen based on fossil fuels (at least USD 1.27 million to unconditional hydrogen based on fossil fuels).
Finally, Select OECD-countries committed at least USD 16.92 billion to multiple fossil fuels (at least USD 16.80 billion to unconditional multiple fossil fuels and at least USD 119.76 million to conditional multiple fossil fuels).
A considerably larger amount of public money committed to supporting the economy and people of Select OECD-countries through monetary and fiscal policies in response to the crisis may also benefit different elements of the energy sector. However, these values are not available from official legislation and statements and therefore are not included in the database. Meanwhile, in addition to monetary and fiscal measures, the database lists other policies and regulations that can also provide benefits to producers and consumers of different energy types.
These public money commitments are additional to many other government policies that had existed to support different energy types before the COVID19 pandemic.

Through the modification of this regulation, the government of Spain seeks to contribute to achieving the climate objectives established in the National Integrated Energy and Climate Plan 2021-2030 (PNIEC), specifically, the objective of improving energy efficiency through the reduction of primary energy consumption by 39.5% in 2030 and of final energy by 36,809.3 tons of oil equivalent (Ktoe). In addition, the RITE will adapt the legislation to the content of Directive (EU) 2018/2001, relating to the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources in the heating and cooling sector, and to that of several European regulations on eco-design and labelling of energy-related products. The update of the RITE forces to justify the installation of conventional thermal systems instead of other which are more efficient and sustainable. In addition, the reform of the regulation encourages the incorporation of renewables in buildings. Moreover, all buildings of more than 1,000 square meters intended for administrative, commercial, etc. must give publicity to customers or users about the energy consumption in these buildings in recent years and its origin. At the same time, the new standard introduces digitization in high-consumption non-residential buildings.

New legislation aims to tackle “premature obsolescence” in electrical goods – short lifespans built into appliances by manufacturers so that customers have to buy new ones sooner – and make them more energy efficient. The rules include a legal requirement on manufacturers to make spare parts available to consumers, which aims to extend the lifespan of products by up to 10 years and cut carbon emissions from the manufacture of new goods. The measures, which apply to white goods such as washing machines, dishwashers and fridges, as well as items such as TVs, aim to reduce the 1.5m tonnes of electrical waste the UK generates a year. New energy labels have also been introduced this week, to simplify the ratings, which had reached the point where most products were classed as A+, A++ or A+++ because of improvements in energy efficiency since the standards were first introduced. The simplified system is based on an A-G scale, with the bar raised for each grade so that very few appliances will now be classed in the top A standard. The new regulations, which the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy aims to bring into force in the summer, reflect what was agreed by the UK as an EU member state two years ago. They will apply in Great Britain, while EU rules will continue to apply in Northern Ireland. | https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/draft-ecodesign-and-energy-labelling-regulations-2021 (Accessed 15 March 2021) |

Planners also want to modify flight time controls, and to extend the daytime flight period available at Leeds Bradford Airport. Councillors voted by nine votes to five to agree to the plans in principle. The updated plans will now return to the council’s plans panel committee at a later date. The decision was met with considerable objections. Objectors to the plans, which included scientists and environmental campaigners, told councillors that further airport expansion would not be compatible with the UK’s climate targets. | https://news.leeds.gov.uk/news/statement-following-decision-by-leeds-city-councils-city-plans-panel-on-planning-application-relating-to-leeds-bradford-airport (Accessed 12 February 2021) |

As expected the new domestic carbon market is expected to largely mirror the EU ETS, which British companies have taken part in since its launch over a decade ago. However, the new document confirms one major change from earlier proposals, with the reserve price for allowances sold at auction increasing by nearly 50 per cent to £22 a tonne. The BEIS update also confirmed the scheme will cover the same businesses as are covered by the EU ETS and that free allocations of allowances will continue to certain industries so as to reduce the risk of 'carbon leakage'. In addition, it confirmed that alongside the auction reserve price the scheme would include a Cost Containment Mechanism (CCM) designed to allow the UK government and devolved administrations to address significant extended price spikes in the market by increasing the availability of allowances. | https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/participating-in-the-uk-ets#history (Accessed 12 February 2021) |

The Strategy includes 10 lines of action and 66 measures that address aspects such as the participation of storage in the energy system, the circular economy or energy communities to generate spaces for citizen participation; the promotion of renewable hydrogen, the development of new business models such as the second life of batteries, the training of professionals to deepen the Just Transition, the use of storage as a basis for technological development in islands and isolated areas, to R + D + i, promoting employment, or the elimination of administrative barriers to facilitate initiatives and projects. The projects carried out as part of the Strategy will be financed through the Recovery and Resilience Mechanism (Next Generation European Funds), other European funds (Innovation Fund, Horizon, European Green Deal, ERDF, InvestEU, etc.) and by national mechanisms such as the R + D + i aid instruments managed by CDTI or other aid instruments managed by IDAE or AEI. Energy storage contributes to the management of electricity networks, encourages citizen participation in changing the energy model and allows greater competition and integration in the electricity market. In addition, it contributes to the generation of employment, economic recovery, the strengthening of the national industry, the development of R + D + i and the improvement of opportunities in the Just Transition areas. | https://www.miteco.gob.es/es/prensa/ultimas-noticias/el-miteco-abre-los-procesos-de-consulta-p%C3%BAblica-previa-de-la-estrategia-de-almacenamiento-y-la-hoja-de-ruta-de-hidr%C3%B3geno-renovable/tcm:30-508598 (Accessed 10 February 2021) https://www.lamoncloa.gob.es/serviciosdeprensa/notasprensa/transicion-ecologica/Paginas/2020/091020-almacenamiento.aspx (Accessed 10 February 2021) https://www.miteco.gob.es/es/prensa/ultimas-noticias/el-gobierno-aprueba-la-estrategia-de-almacenamiento-energ%C3%A9tico-clave-para-garantizar-la-seguridad-del-suministro-y-precios-m%C3%A1s-bajos-de-la-energ/tcm:30-522653 (Accessed 10 February 2021) https://www.miteco.gob.es/es/prensa/estrategiadealmacenamientoenergetico_tcm30-522655.pdf (Accessed 10 February 2021) |

These homes are expected to produce 75-80% lower carbon emissions compared to current levels. To ensure industry is ready to meet the new standards by 2025, new homes will be expected to produce 31% lower carbon emissions from 2021. Existing homes will also be subject to higher standards – with a significant improvement on the standard for extensions, making homes warmer and reducing bills. The requirement for replacement, repairs and parts to be more energy efficient. This includes the replacement of windows and building services such as heat pumps, cooling systems, or fixed lighting.

In 2019 the Planning Inspectorate recommended that ministers refuse permission for the 3.6GW gas plant on the grounds that it “would undermine the government’s commitment, as set out in the Climate Change Act 2008, to cut greenhouse emissions [by having] significant adverse effects.” Andrea Leadsom, the secretary of state for business, energy and industrial strategy at the time of the planning application, rejected the advice and gave the project the go-ahead in October 2019.

The application for the Dewley Hill coal mine project was submitted earlier in 2020 by Banks Mining, which argued that the project would provide essential fuel to the UK’s steel and cement sector. Its plans were built around extracting up to 800,000 tonnes of coal and 400,000 tonnes of fireclay each year.Banks Mining also pointed to the job creation potential of the project amid the backdrop of Covid-19. It argued that the mine would create 200 full-time equivalent roles for the local area. Newcastle City Council, however, concluded that the project was not compatible with the UK’s climate targets or its own commitment to net-zero by 2030 and the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Moreover, the UK Government has enshrined in law a commitment to stop the use of thermal coal power plants by 2024 – a deadline recently brought forward from 2025. The ban does not apply to the materials sectors Banks Mining was intending to supply, but there is the risk that legislation will become tighter in the near future. | https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/dec/18/newcastle-councillors-reject-plans-for-opencast-coal-mine https://www.edie.net/news/11/Dewey-Hill--Newcastle-City-Council-blocks-controversial-coal-mine/ |

The source of funding is the Operational Program Infrastructure and Environment 2014-2020, sub-measure 1.6.1. MPEC in Nowy Sącz is the operator of a system that includes energy sources and a heat network for city residents, public institutions, and companies. The planned project involves the construction of a gas boiler for the production of thermal energy to meet year-round heat demand in Nowy Sącz. A modern high-efficiency cogeneration system powered by natural gas will produce 5.85 MW of heat and 6 MW of electricity per year. Greenhouse gas emissions are expected to decrease by approx. 31,496 tons of CO2 / year and primary energy consumption by 171,375 GJ / year. Limiting the use of hard coal is a key goal. The contract for co-financing the construction was signed in Warsaw on December 29, 2020 by the Vice-President of the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management and the President of the Management Board of Miejskie Przedsiębiorstwo Energetyki Cieplnej Sp. z o. o. in Nowy Sącz. The total cost of the investment will be almost PLN 27 million, and its completion is planned for the second quarter of 2023. | http://nfosigw.gov.pl/o-nfosigw/aktualnosci/art,1698,wysokosprawna-kogeneracja-w-nowosadeckim-mpec.html (accessed 4 Jan 2020) |

Orlen and Energa will have a total share of 51% in the project, while PGNiG will have the remaining 49% share. This agreement complements a 2016 agreement between Orlen and PGNiG, which guarantees Orlen stable gas supplies to its projects until 2027. As part of the terms, PGNiG will ensure supply of natural gas to the power plant by end-2027. This is seen as supporting Orlen's low-emission strategy seeing as a coal-fired power plant was recently constructed in Ostrołęka. While company Enea was initially part of this consortium, it backed out of the project. | https://www.cire.pl/item,209371,1,0,0,0,0,0,orlen-energa-i-pgnig-zbuduja-elektrownie-gazowa-w-ostrolece.html (accessed 28 Dec 2020) |

Technical assistance work for the development of action plans for climate and sustainable energy (PACES) will be eligible. Carrying out these plans is one of the commitments acquired by the municipalities of the Autonomous Community of Galicia that are signatories of the aforementioned Pact. In the same they also undertake to have carried out said plans within a maximum period of two years from the date of adhesion of the entity to the Covenant of Mayors. The European Commission launched in 2008 the Covenant of Mayors, an initiative open to all cities and municipalities in Europe with the aim of involving local authorities and citizens in the development and implementation of the energy policy of the European Union. Following the success of the Covenant of Mayors, in 2014 the Mayors' Adapt initiative was launched, based on the same public management model, inviting cities to make political commitments and take measures to anticipate the inevitable effects of climate change. On October 15, 2015, the European Commission launched the Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy, merging previous initiatives. This new tool aims to bring together the mayors of European cities in a permanent information exchange network for the application of good practices: improve energy efficiency in urban areas, achieve a reduction in CO2 emissions in the local territory and increase resilience to climate change. The Covenant of Mayors for Climate and Energy consists of the commitment of the signatory municipalities to accomplish the objectives of the European Union for the year 2030 and reduce CO2 emissions in their territory by at least 40% through energy efficiency measures and a greater use of renewable energy sources, working in turn on the implementation of measures to adapt to climate change and increase resilience against it, as well as increased cooperation with the Similar local and regional authorities in the EU and beyond to improve access to safe, sustainable and affordable energy. These subsidies will be 80% co-financed by the ERDF European Funds. | https://www.xunta.gal/dog/Publicados/2020/20200514/AnuncioG0532-050520-0006_es.html (Accessed 17 December 2020) https://www.eumayors.eu/ (Accessed 17 December 2020) |

In the first stage of the project (2021), the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management will allocate PLN 10 million to communities, housing cooperatives, and local governments to cover modernization projects and consultation costs. The pool of funds will increase with experience in the program. Inspiration for the program was taken from the EU's FinEErgoDom initiative. Under the model, building owners will be able to undertake thermal modernization activities (that will lead to the reduction of energy consumption) thanks to financial contributions by ESCOs. ESCOs debts will be ensured purchase by the Polish Development Fund. | http://nfosigw.gov.pl/o-nfosigw/aktualnosci/art,1695,nfosigw-i-pfr-s-a-beda-wdrazac-model-esco-pilotaz-z-budzetem-10-mln-zl.html (accessed 21 Dec 2020) |

Going forward, the federal carbon price will continue to be revenue neutral, and the Government will continue to return all fuel charge proceeds back to Canadian families and their communities, ensuring that the majority of households receive more in payments than they face in costs. These payments will move from annual to quarterly payments starting as early as 2022. | https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/eccc/documents/pdf/climate-change/climate-plan/healthy_environment_healthy_economy_plan.pdf |

This is a significant change –in the last four years, the government supported £21 billion of UK oil and gas exports through trade promotion and export finance. The policy will be implemented after a short period of consultation and is intended to come into force as soon as possible, and before COP26 next November. The government will work with the UK’s oil and gas sector to support the move to low carbon energy sources through the North Sea Transition Deal, ensuring areas like Teesside and Aberdeen can become global hubs for wind energy, carbon capture and other clean technologies of the future. | ttps://www.gov.uk/government/news/pm-announces-the-uk-will-end-support-for-fossil-fuel-sector-overseas Accessed 14 December 2020 |

The global green bonds market has surged in recent years, with analyst Moody's recently projecting total issuance worldwide could grow to between $175bn and $225bn by the end of 2020. But while a growing number of countries, including the likes of Germany and Sweden have issued sovereign green bonds, the UK has yet to do so. Meanwhile, the fast-growing sector has been dogged by concerns that a lack of clarity over what constitutes a green or climate bond could result in some nominally green funding being channelled to support polluting infrastructure. Moreover, in addition to issuing its first green gilts, the UK will seek to implement a green taxonomy that would provide a common framework for determining which activities can be defined as environmentally sustainable, building on EU's on-going efforts to develop its own green taxonomy. | https://www.gov.uk/government/news/chancellor-sets-out-ambition-for-future-of-uk-financial-services Accessed 27 November 2020 |

The new regulations will significantly facilitate the use of the wind energy potential in the Baltic Sea and the development of Polish companies from the maritime economy sector. It is anticipated that the support for investors will be granted for a period of 25 years. The new act introduces a number of improvements. Administrative and legal procedures have been simplified, reducing the time in which investors can implement investments in offshore wind farms. In the first phase of the system's operation, for farms with a total capacity of 5.9 GW, support will be granted by way of an administrative decision by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office. The possibility of entering this system ends on June 30, 2021. In the following years, support will be granted in the formula of competitive auctions. The new act provides that investors will be required to conduct a dialogue with potential suppliers of materials and services for the implementation of offshore wind farms. Polish companies will therefore have the opportunity to become part of the supply chain of services and technologies necessary for the operation of offshore wind farms. The Ministry of Climate and Environment predicts that the new regulations will encourage investors and accelerate the process of transformation of the Polish energy sector into zero-emission energy sources. After 2020, Poland, as well as other EU Member States, are required to generate at least 15% of electricity from renewable sources. | https://www.gov.pl/web/klimat/projekt-ustawy-wspierajacej-morskie-farmy-wiatrowe-przyjety (accessed 30 Nov 2020) |

This change is expected to result in an annual reduction of up to one megatonne of greenhouse gas emissions in 2030. Notably, this final regulation is weaker than what was put forth in Ontario's climate plan, which stated "increasing the ethanol content of gasoline to 15% as early as 2025". The regulation also delays the compliance period for fuel suppliers in response to the pandemic. Most of the ethanol produced in Ontario is made from locally-grown corn rather than biomass waste -- and this announcement or the accompanying materials do not mention any safeguards that would make these “advanced: or “second” or “third generation” biofuels, so this policy is classified as 'Other energy'. | https://news.ontario.ca/en/release/59352/ontario-to-be-national-leader-and-require-cleaner-and-greener-gasoline-1 https://www.ontario.ca/page/made-in-ontario-environment-plan Accessed 1 December 2020 |

This installation, which is part of the European Stardust project, will involve a total investment of 153,411 euros, of which 93,255.5 euros will be provided by the Regional Executive. The rest will be financed by the Horizon 2020 Program of the European Union. The agreement is about installing a photovoltaic recharging point with energy storage capacity based on second-life lithium batteries that allows rapid recharging of electric vehicles. It will be specially designed for taxis, but its use will be open to other vehicles. The government grant will cover the photovoltaic installation, and specifically, the inverter, the control and monitoring systems, electrical installation and photovoltaic modules, among others. The telecommunications infrastructure necessary to connect the facility with the municipal optical fiber network will also be financed. The goal is for the charging point to be operational from December 1. This action, aimed at reducing C02 emissions, is part of the European Stardust project, which Navarra joined in October 2017. Through this project, 5.5 million will be invested in Pamplona in solutions aimed at increasing energy efficiency global, and improve the quality of life in Pamplona, as well as to stimulate the local economy and new business models. | https:/www.navarra.es/es/noticias/2020/10/06/el-gobierno-de-navarra-y-el-ayuntamiento-de-pamplona-colaboran-en-la-instalacion-de-un-punto-de-recarga-de-vehiculos-electricos?pageBackId=363032&back=true (Accessed 13 October 2020) |

It will be located in the Navarra Arena pavilion and will supply the neighborhood located within a radius of 500 meters. Energy management will be carried out through a citizen community, to which individuals, local authorities and small businesses can join. The goal is for the installation to be completed by early 2021. Located on the roof of the Navarra Arena pavilion, it will have 422 panels that represent a peak installed power of 168.8 kW, which will allow it to produce 210.00 kWh / year. All this will serve to reduce both C02 emissions (by 49,000 kg CO2 / year) and energy expenditure, to the point that users are expected to save more than 300,000 euros in 20 years, in the order of 20,000 euros the first year, a figure that will increase year after year. At the same time, the citizen community of renewable energy (CCER) will be articulated, which will be in charge of managing the installation. It is a group of legally constituted users, with voluntary and open participation, which can develop actions for the generation, distribution, supply and consumption of energy, and the provision of different energy services to members. Precisely, the Regional Government has opened a participatory process so that all those interested can take part in this initiative and benefit from the energy generated. The start-up of a citizen community of renewable energy (CCER) is in line with the objective of promoting distributed generation and self-consumption, contemplated in the Navarra 2030 Energy Plan and with the guidelines on ecological transition defined for the policies within the framework of the European Commission's Recovery Plan for Europe. | https://www.navarra.es/es/noticias/2020/10/07/el-gobierno-de-navarra-promueve-una-instalacion-fotovoltaica-para-el-autoconsumo-colectivo-en-el-navarra-arena?pageBackId=363032&back=true (Accessed 13 October 2020) |

The text establishes a new framework for future renewable installations that will be developed through auctions. In any case, participants will bid by offering the price they are willing to charge for the energy generated by the installation. The new remuneration framework will be aimed at new renewable power and will allow hybridization between technologies and will be compatible with storage. The new REER is also essential to comply with the decarbonisation commitments that Spain has made in the Paris Agreement and as a member state of the European Union. These commitments have been planned in the Integrated Climate Energy Plan (PNIEC) 2021-2030, which provides for the installation of around 60GW renewables in the next decade and which includes, among its measures, the development of this type of auctions. | https://www.miteco.gob.es/es/prensa/ultimas-noticias/el-gobierno-aprueba-el-real-decreto-de-subastas-para-aprovechar-todo-el-potencial-de-las-energ%C3%ADas-renovables-en-la-reactivaci%C3%B3n-econ%C3%B3mica/tcm:30-516131 (Accessed 3 November 2020) https://www.boe.es/diario_boe/txt.php?id=BOE-A-2020-13591 (Accessed 3 November 2020) |

The Energy Transition is one of the three environmental goals of this plan. It accounts for 9% of the total resources and it is intended to move the economy towards a clear, stable and predictable normative framework which promotes private investment and renewable energies by developing a new auction system and support lines for innovative projects, with a clear commitment to floating offshore wind power. The concrete measures regarding the energy transition are: Massive deployment of the renewable generation park aimed at energy development, electrical infrastructures, promotion of smart grids and deployment of flexibility and storage, roadmap for renewable hydrogen and its sectoral integration and Just Transition Strategy. The Plan will be financed by the European Recovery Fund, but the Government has decided to advance in the next General State Budgets 27,000 million euros to this Plan. This will allow the execution of the Plan to be accelerated from the moment the State General Budgets are approved. Specifically, the European Recovery Fund will allow Spain to obtain financing for up to 140,000 million of which around 72,000 million will be disbursed in the form of transfers and the rest through loans. The European Recovery Fund consists of two instruments through which resources will be channelled: on the one hand, the Facility for Recovery and Resilience, which concentrates the bulk with 59,000 million in transfers, and on the other hand, the REACT-EU that allows our country to obtain financing for an amount of 12,400 million. | https://www.lamoncloa.gob.es/presidente/actividades/Paginas/2020/071020-sanchez_plan.aspx (Accessed 8 October 2020) https://www.lamoncloa.gob.es/serviciosdeprensa/notasprensa/presidencia/Paginas/2020/07102020_planrecuperacion.aspx (Accessed 8 October 2020) https://www.lamoncloa.gob.es/presidente/actividades/Documents/2020/07102020_PlanRecuperacion.pdf (Accessed 8 October 2020) |

The liquidation of individual mines will occur in phases between 2021 and 2049. Coal miners are guaranteed their jobs until retirement; if this is not possible, they will be covered by a social protection plan. While this is a step in the right direction for the country, the agreement indicates that the state will continue to subsidize coal until 2049. For this reason, it is unclear whether the EC wil sign off on this plan (the EC must approve of the state aid plans for the policy to come into effect). The agreement does not cover coking coal mines in Silesia nor coal mining activities in Eastern Poland. | https://www.gov.pl/web/aktywa-panstwowe/porozumienie-w-sprawie-transformacji-i-przyszlosci-gornictwa-podpisane (accessed 28 Sep 2020); https://www.cire.pl/item,204893,1,0,0,0,0,0,podpisano-porozumienie-w-sprawie-zasad-i-tempa-transformacji-gornictwa-.html (accessed 28 Sep 2020) |

The Government of Alberta has announced that it will use up to CAD 750 million from its Technology Innovation and Emissions Reduction (TIER) fund, along with other funding, to support emissions reductions in key industries. TIER is a carbon pricing system, a fund paid into by large industrial facilities. This announcement will use all amounts currently in the TIER fund. Announcements on September 22, 2020 included the following allocations: CAD 52 million for methane programs in the oil and gas sector and CAD 80 million for Alberta’s new Industrial Energy Efficiency and Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage (IEE CCUS) Grant Program. CAD 9.5 million was previously announced through Emissions Reduction Alberta to support several carbon capture, utilization and storage projects.

The Government of Newfoundland and Labrador has also established an oil and gas industry recovery task force.
Annually, the Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Petroleum Board (C-NLOPB) issues calls for bids for exploration licences in the province’s offshore. The sole criterion for selecting a winning bid is the total amount of money the bidder commits to spend on exploration of the parcel. The successful bidder is required to post a security deposit for 25 per cent of the work expenditure bid. If the bidder does not meet its work commitment, the security deposit is forfeit and the investment opportunity is lost. Under this new policy, forfeited security deposits can be reinvested into offshore exploration projects.

| Germany | National | Other energy | Coal Phase-Out Act underlying Germany’s coal phase out by 2038 | Multiple sectors | Multiple energy types | New or extended regulation (IT... | 03/07/2020 | Several energy stages | Government | To phase out lignite power in Germany and assist transition of miners, lignite producing regions and lignite power generators | The Coal Phase Out Act (Gesetz zur Reduzierung und zur Beendigung der Kohleverstromung und zur Änderung weiterer Gesetze (Kohleausstiegsgesetz)) passed on 3 July 2020 underlies the plan to phase out coal by 2038. According to the Act, coal-fired power production in the country will come to an end no later than 2038. The law paves the way for a EUR 40 billion support programme for the economic transformation of coal regions and legislation to compensate coal plant operators for shutting down capacity. In particular, the Act stipulates that a total of EUR 4.35 billion in compensation will be paid for the planned shutdowns by 2030 (see separate entry in the Tracker). Further, the government would introduce adaptation payments for older workers in lignite mines and hard coal and lignite power plants who lose their jobs due to the coal exit plans, with a budget of up to EUR 5 billion by 2048. The Coal Phase-Out Act was passed 18 months after the issue of multi-stakeholder Coal Exit Commission's recommendations, so it has its roots well before the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis and government responses to it. The Act has implications for both coal and other energy types, hence it is classified here as "Other Energy". The European Commission has green-lit the scheme on Wednesday 25 November. | https://www.bundesrat.de/SharedDocs/beratungsvorgaenge/2020/0301-0400/0392-20.html (Accessed 27 July 2020) |

The deal is part of Germany’s effort to completely wean off coal by no later than 2038 and covers a total of 4.35 billion euros in payments to utilities, which will also waive any rights for future lawsuits if they sign it. RWE and Leag (owned 50-50% owned by Czech energy group EPH and private equity group PPF Investments), are by far the largest operators of lignite, or brown coal, power plants and mines in Germany. The Coal Phase Out Act (Gesetz zur Reduzierung und zur Beendigung der Kohleverstromung und zur Änderung weiterer Gesetze (Kohleausstiegsgesetz)) passed on 3 July 2020 (see separate entry) underlies the plan to phase out coal by 2038. The Act stipulates that a total of EUR 4.35 billion in compensation will be paid for the planned shutdowns by 2030. Western German power company RWE will receive EUR 2.6 billion for shutting down its plants by the end of 2029. EUR 1.75 billion will go to operations in the eastern German district Lusatia, run by the Lausitz Energie Kraftwerk AG (LEAG). Part of the money will not go to LEAG itself but to a trustee confirmed by the government. The compensation does not change in case the operators shut down plants earlier than planned. The Coal Phase Out Act was passed 18 months after the issue of multi-stakeholder Coal Exit commission Recommendations, so it has its roots well before the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis and government responses to it. However, this measure is included in the Tracker as a new policy that involves a significant public expenditure. It is classified as "fossil conditional" because, despite the end goal of phasing out coal, it pays the polluters. The law was passed by both chambers of the Parliament on 3 July. As of 28 July, the Coal Phase Out Act was still awaiting signature of the Federal President, upon which it will enter into force the next day. | https://uk.reuters.com/article/germany-coal-compensation/german-government-approves-lignite-compensation-contract-idUKL8N2IV4SI Accessed 4 January 2021 |

These new rates were published after the Energy Regulatory Commission (Comisión Reguladora de Energía -CRE) approved a petition by the national electricity company to increase the costs to private electricity generators. The high and medium-transmission rates changed from 0.049 pesos to 0.2785 and 0.2586 pesos per KW/hr, an increase of 469 and 428%, respectively. The low-tension transmission rate was increased from 0.09799 pesos to 0.8928 pesos per KW/hr, an increase of 811%. The new transmission tariff, know as the "porteo estampilla y porteo térmico" will be applied to thermal plants as well as plantas de autoabastecimiento and renewables considered "legacy plants", meaning their licenses were given by the regulating commission before the Law for Electricity Industry ("Ley de la Industria Eléctrica - LIE).
