General Block Exemption Regulation: T&E’s response to the public consultation

December 15, 2021

A new paper by Transport & Environment (T&E) reviews the GBER and provides recommendations on how to align it with the goal to decarbonise transport by 2050.

The General Block Exemption Regulation, which regulates state aid not covered by the Climate, Energy and Environmental Aid Guidelines (CEEAG) is currently being revised by the European Commission (EC). T&E welcomes the draft text opened to consultation by the EC. In this paper, we provide some ideas on how to further improve this version of the document to make sure it is aligned with the goal to
decarbonise transport by 2050.
