Poland loses before the CJEU. It's about the "Fit for 55" package
The Court of Justice of the European Union dismissed Poland's seven complaints regarding the "Fit for 55" climate package, which aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Poland argued that some regulations should require unanimous approval from member states due to their fiscal nature. However, the court ruled that these regulations are part of EU environmental policy aimed at combating climate change and fulfilling the Paris Agreement. The court also rejected Poland's claims about energy solidarity and potential negative economic impacts, emphasizing that the legal basis for EU acts should be determined by their objectives rather than economic consequences. The "Fit for 55" initiative aims for a 55% reduction in emissions by 2030 compared to 1990 levels and climate neutrality by 2050.
