SERV urges social debate on the financing of the energy policy

The Flemish government developed a new  regulation on the financing of VREG (Flemish Regulator of the Electricity and Gas market). SERV suggests weighing  the new taxes against some of his alternatives and sets out the (hidden) costs, costs of implementation and concrete distributional effects. Furthermore the council emphasizes that the debate regarding the financing of the VREG is an essential part of the broad social debate on the financing of the energy policy in general.
