Samenvatting:
The Member States of the European Union (EU) have agreed upon a commonposition in the international negotiations on the limitation of greenhouse
gas emissions. The total commitment of the EU is the result of differentiated
emission targets for the individual Member States. In this study the results
of 4 recent scenario studies on CO2 emission reduction are used to assess the
fairness and the cost-effectiveness of the differentiated targets. Here,
fairness is measured by the average cost per capita in a country to reach the
emission target. Cost-effectiveness is based on the marginal cost of emission
reduction. It is noted that there are limitations in the comparability of the
country results. Further, the coverage of the EU Member States is not
complete in all 4 studies. Robust conclusions could thus not be drawn for all
countries. Nonetheless, there are strong indications that the efforts to
achieve the emission reduction targets are not evenly distributed. Based on
the results the countries can be divided into four groups with different
burdens to achieve reduction of CO2 emissions: a) countries that will
probably be faced with above average burdens: Sweden, Italy and the
Netherlands; b) countries that will presumably be faced with above average
burdens but for which limited information is available: Austria and Denmark;
c) countries that will probably be faced with average burdens or for which
the relative efforts are indistinct: Germany, Portugal, Belgium, Finland and
Luxembourg; and d) countries that will probably be faced with below average
burdens: United Kingdom, France, Spain, Ireland and Greece. 1 fig., 12 tabs.,
