Wijziging van de Wet belastingen op milieugrondslag en de Wet milieubeheer voor de invoering van een minimum CO2-prijs bij elektriciteitsopwekking (Wet minimum CO2-prijs elektriciteitsopwekking)

This legislative amendment introduces a minimum price for CO2 emissions specifically for electricity generation. It aims to ensure a stable financial incentive for power plants to reduce their carbon emissions, preventing a drop in carbon prices from slowing down the transition to cleaner energy sources. This change primarily affects electricity producers and power plants in the Netherlands. It ensures that the cost of polluting remains high enough to make sustainable energy investments more attractive.
