Mudando o foco dos subsídios energéticos para a redução da dependência energética
A invasão russa da Ucrânia e as sanções resultantes fizeram os preços da energia dispararem. Governos que buscam aliviar os impactos negativos dos aumentos de preços nas famílias introduziram subsídios de energia e reduções de IVA para eletricidade, gás e combustível. Embora tais políticas possam ser necessárias para proteger os mais necessitados, subsidiar o uso de energia é uma solução de curto prazo – é uma compensação temporária e parcial que nem sempre alcança os mais afetados. Além disso, subsidiar o uso de energia de combustíveis fósseis entra em conflito com os objetivos da UE de limitar as emissões de carbono e mantém sua dependência energética de terceiros países, como a Rússia.
