Alors que les objectifs européens et nationaux impliquent une baisse drastique des émissions du parc de véhicules neufs d’ici 2030, il est difficile de savoir si les politiques publiques actuellement en vigueur sont à la hauteur de cette ambition ; notamment, le calibrage du bonus-malus notamment ne semble être soumis à aucune étude d’impact publique. I4CE a eu le plaisir de vous convier à un webinaire très court pour échanger sur sa dernière étude sur l’évaluation climat du bonus-malus. Les auteurs ont présenté l’outil d’évaluation qu’ils ont développé et les conclusions qu’ils en tirent sur la cohérence du barème actuel avec la stratégie nationale bas-carbone. Jean-Philippe Hermine, Expert Senior Mobilité à l'IDDRI s'est joint à eux pour échanger sur l’évaluation des politiques publiques en matière de mobilité.

Increasing the contribution of banks is the major issue that I4CE proposes to address in a study published in September 2021. The objective is to overcome the classic opposition between the supporters of a Green Supporting Factor (for prudential relief due to the lower risk of green assets) and of a Penalizing Factor (to penalize activities that emit high CO2 levels because they are more exposed to transition risks).

The Paris Agreement has strengthened the call to the financial community to provide an essential contribution to climate action. To date, the focus of alignment efforts has principally been on what is financed – i.e. the individual projects or business activities. However, financial institutions of all types have recently been expanding the focus from the alignment of what is financed to also include an assessment of the alignment of who is financed. In response, in December 2020, marking the fifth anniversary of the Paris Agreement, and in the follow up of the Finance in Common Summit, UNEP FI and the Climate Action in Financial Institutions Initiative are convening an informal FI Group on Aligning Financial Chains with the Paris Agreement.
