The vote in the Environment committee of the European Parliament on the 2040 climate target has been removed from the draft agenda for the sitting of 23 September - in reaction to the announcement of a debate at EUCO level europarl.europa.eu/doceo/docume...

The 🇩🇰 presidency of the Council is suggesting a range of 66.3%-72.5% for the temporary nationally determined contribution (#NDC) of the EU, "without prejudice to the final agreement of the EU's 2040 climate target". The issue will be discussed tomorrow by Coreper I

In the new draft compromise on the 2040 #climate target, the 3% international carbon credits contributing to the target is now under brackets (which emphasizes that this point is still under discussion), as well as the 2036 date

Together with other ENVI coordinators from pro-EU groups in parliament, I just finalized a timeline to complete 2040 climate targets before the climate summit #COP30. From the beginning, it was a mistake by EPP to hand over this crucial climate file to the far-right. 1/3

2040 #climate target: The European Parliament political groups have just adopted a timeline for the negotiations - report 25/07 - deadline for amendments 08/09 - Vote in Environment committee 23/09 - plenary vote: first session of October

The European Parliament rejected the request by Renew, the Greens and S&D to use an urgent procedure on the 2040 #climate target. Seems that they didn't counvinced the EPP not to vote with PfE, ESN and ECR 300+, 379-, 8 abstentions.

At the European Parliament, the group Patriots for Europe (PfE) got the rapporteurship of the #2040 climate target according to two sources. Later today the MEPs will vote on a request by the Greens for an urgent procedure

According to several sources, the 2040 climate target will be discussed by EU leaders at Thursday's EUCO summit. France wants to raise it. Will it delay the 2040 legislative proposal from the European Commission expected on the 2nd of July?

At the @iea.org’s 10th Annual Global Conference on Energy Efficiency, commissioner Dan Jørgensen said he will put forward a "data centre energy efficiency package" - to be published together with the Strategy Roadmap on Digitalisation and AI (Q1 2026)

It's confirmed. The legislative proposal on the 2040 #climate target is foreseen on the 2nd of July. The #MFF package is spread over two weeks

The European Commission has just launched a public consultation on its upcoming #grid package. Also this morning, the European Parliament's Committee on Energy (ITRE) has adopted an INI report on grids with a broad majority (52✅, 9❌, 2⭕️)

Still no sign of the legislative proposal on the EU 2040 #climate target in the latest indicative agenda of the European Commission

The amendment of the EU #Climate Law to include the 2040 climate target is now foreseen for Q1 2025 in the 2025 Commission working programme (instead of Q2 2025 in the draft version)

A new version of the leaked Commission work programme 2025 is circulating. No major change compared to the previous version as regards #energy and #climate policies (1/2)

In a new draft version of the #Competitiveness Compass which will be presented today, the #electrification action plan is now foreseen for Q1 2026, alongside a Grids Package. The text also mentions the upcoming EU 2040 climate target (which was missing in the previous version) but not -90%

The Commission has just launched the public consultation on the #NZIA implementing act specifying the non-price criteria in auctions for certain #renewable energy technologies. The draft of the implementing act is here : ec.europa.eu/info/law/bet...

It seems that the Commission decided to launch the series of public consultations on #NZIA secondary legislation. First one is about the delegated act on primarily used components ec.europa.eu/info/law/bet...

At the European Parliament, EU commissioner Wopke Hoekstra has just said it is "unlikely" that the legislative proposal on the EU 2040 #climate target will be presented in February

Yesterday during the Environment Council, 8 Member States (🇩🇪🇸🇪🇩🇰🇱🇺🇦🇹🇫🇮🇳🇱🇪🇸) clearly supported the Commission's recommended target of reducing EU net greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by 2040 www.contexte.com/actualite/en...

Today the environment ministers of the EU Member States are meeting in Brussels to discuss, among other things, the EU's 2040 #climate target

At today #Energy Council, the ministers of the EU Member States unanimously adopted the conclusions on #geothermal energy prepared by the Hungarian presidency

The Energy Charter Treaty conference has just approved the modernisation of the treaty, a process launched in 2017... It's been a long ride #ECT

What we know so far about 🇵🇱 Council's presidency's priorities for Energy 👉 Most likely no legislative texts to negotiate 👉 Council's CCL could focus on "Energy Security" 👉 Debates on the follow-up to REPowerEU and how to end dependency on 🇷🇺, on Energy & the clean industrial deal. 1/2

During a meeting yesterday in Brussels, the Industry Ministers of the Member States were unable to agree on joint Council conclusions on the future of the EU's #competitiveness. The reason? #Nuclear A short 🧵

Today during the Competitiveness Council, the French Minister Delegate for Industry, Marc Ferracci, suggested to have "an #electrification bank, based on the #hydrogen model," supported by the Innovation Fund and #ETS revenues

Today is #Competitiveness Council day. The Member States ministers will adopt conclusions on the future of the EU competitiveness. Might also be an opportunity for them to say more about what they expect from the clean #industrial deal which will be presented under the Commission first 100 days

According to Itre committee's draft agenda, the vote on the trilogue agreement on the revision of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (#EPBD) will finally take place on 15 January europarl.europa.eu/doceo/docume...

According to the provisional agenda, the European Commission plans to present its communication on the EU's 2040 #climate target on 6 February
