Overview
This grant will fund the European Climate Foundation’s (ECF) primary mitigation programs. ECF works across EU institutions, including the European Commission, in key individual states and at the corporate level. In 2017 ECF will prioritize efforts to maintain — and, if possible, increase – Europe’s commitment to international climate leadership; this will be particularly critical as U.S. engagement declines. At the European Commission level, ECF will work to implement efficiency requirements, and promote fuel efficiency standards for cars and trucks. At the nation state level, ECF will focus on the clean energy transition in Poland, Germany, the U.K., and France. In the industrial sector, ECF has developed a cement program organized around zero emissions.
