Socio-Economic Impacts. Ambitious energy and climate policy have wide-ranging implications on the European economy. Decarbonisation is set to impact the sectoral output, demand and employment, the prices of goods and services, the allocation of capital, labour and energy resources in productive activities and the international competitiveness of domestic industrial firms. The transition to climate neutrality by mid-century requires reallocation of capital and labour forces across and within productive sectors. It also asks for increased investment in energy efficiency, renewable energy and low-carbon fuels and enhanced low-carbon innovation and economies of scale to drive down the costs of clean energy technologies. This is a gradual, still complex process that entails shifts in investment patterns and large restructuring of economies, moving away from the current paradigm of fossil-based energy, private Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) cars and inefficient use of energy. As COVID-19 pandemic has made evident, many other factors (including automation, globalisation, digitalisation) may affect economic development in different ways, i.e., in terms of cyclical developments as well as structural long-lasting changes. Decarbonisation would create significant challenges and opportunities for countries, businesses, and citizens; the socio-economic outcome of the transition would depend on a multitude of factors, including the efficiency of the adopted policy mix, the provision of low-cost finance, the international policy ambition, the availability of labour skills and the scheme for recycling the ETS revenues. The demand for fossil fuels will rapidly decline because of ambitious emission reduction policies, impacting directly those working in coal, oil, and gas industries, but also those working in fossil-fired power plants and in the manufacturing of ICEs. The risk of early retirement of productive assets and the difficult adjustments in the labour market driven by market frictions and potential mismatches between skills available and skill requirements of the low-carbon economy is imminent. The challenges related to capital and labour reallocation increase with the speed at which the transformation must occur. Macro-economic impacts are assessed under various policy scenarios aiming to climate neutrality in the EU. Given the critical role of economic and trade interactions with other regions, section 5.5 describes the competitiveness impacts of different climate policy futures. Howe...
