Differentiated Integration in the European Environmental and Energy Policy

Project
Duration: Feb - May 2006

Ecologic provided expert review in support of the project "Das größere Europa" organised by the Bertelsmann Stiftung. The review is entitled: "Differentiated integration in the European environmental and energy policy".

In its expert review, Ecologic analysed the possibilities and the requirements for further integration of European environmental and energy policies. In addition to describing the political framework specific to each policy field, Ecologic considered the need and opportunity for both selective and comprehensive policy integration. Example cases were specified.

The focus of this brief report is on EU environmental policy and environmentally relevant aspects of EU energy policy. A brief description of the initial situation in both policy areas is followed by examples of possible areas of application of differentiated integration. The first section discusses the potential benefits of differentiated integration in different areas of EU environmental policy, while the second section focuses more on implementation options. For the examples from the EU energy policy, advantages and implementation possibilities are discussed directly one after the other in one section for presentation reasons. The short report is available for download.
