To date, European climate policy has not yet led to widespread relocations of energy-intensive production abroad by domestic firms, the Bundesbank concludes in its latest Monthly Report. In this, the economists examine the impact of the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) on the foreign direct investment decisions taken by German manufacturing sector enterprises. The experts conclude that favourable framework conditions that encourage innovation in low-emissions technologies are needed in order to prevent domestic production from being relocated in the future, too.
