Instrument mix or mess? The administrative complexity of the EU
legislative Package for climate change (Peeters, 2014)
Aim of this chapter
Current legislative approach of the EU in the field of climate change contains measures for:
1. Emission reduction
2. Renewable energies
3. Energy efficiency

'triple 20' approach = 20% GHG emission reduction, 20% renewable energy and 20% energy saving
 Instruments to reach the triple 20 approach: emissions trading, taxation, permitting, voluntary
agreements, liability arrangements, energy labelling, eco design requirements and fuel quality
standards + support mechanisms for promoting renewable energy at EU and member state
level

Criticism: the current legislative package which supports EU climate policy so vast and diverse that it
has become an enormous challenge to master a good understanding of specific provisions of each
legislative measure and related potential legal conflicts

The regulatory instrument package in EU climate law
A target-based approach with a huge compliance challenge
EU has chosen to set targets -> secondary legislation has been adopted to achieve those
 Broader target -> specific targets
 Evidence: the EU ETS Directive (EU-wide), the Renewable Energy Directive and the Effort
Sharing Decisions start from targets to be reached

Target-based approach assumes that sufficient measures will be taken in order to reach compliance,
which requires a lot of steering
 Field of environmental law well known for non-compliance behaviour
 Member States often do not comply with the set obligations (fail to steer private actors in their
national systems towards less polluting behaviour)

New directive on energy efficiency measures adopted in 2012
