The cost of renewable energy
A critical assessment of the impact assessments underlying the Clean Energy for all Europeans-Package
Preface
The European Commission underpins its climate and energy policy proposals with extensive modelling. The modelling results play a substantial role in determining the outcome of Commission impact assessments, i.e. the analysis on costs and effects of specific proposals. Assumptions underlying Commission modelling thus determine to a large extent wether and to which degree certain policy choices will be regarded as beneficial.
