Pilot project: Integration of a climate module into the long-term budget forecast.
Description
On behalf of the Federal Ministry of Finance, the Federal Environment Agency experts have prepared two scenarios for the development of greenhouse gas emissions: a baseline scenario and an activity scenario (which reflects the energy transformation). For 2030, Austria’s emissions in the baseline scenario are around 10.4 million tonnes of CO2 equivalents above the EU target and around 6 million tonnes of CO2 equivalents below the activity scenario in the activity scenario. In both scenarios, the model calculations show steady economic growth. The investments are clearly in the activity scenario, value added slightly above the level of the baseline scenario. Employment and private consumption are somewhat hampered by the higher price and wage levels in the activity scenario. From 2040, lower electricity prices reduce annual price and wage inflation in the activity scenario and employment and consumption grow more strongly than in the baseline scenario.
