Fossil-fuel subsidies (SCP Indicator 9)

In order to measure fossil-fuel subsidies, three sub-indicators are recommended: 1) direct transfer of government funds; 2) induced transfers (price support); and 3) tax expenditure, other revenue foregone, and under-pricing of goods and services.This indicator could inform on a country’s effort in creating the enabling conditions for phasing out fossil fuels. This indicator is tracked by MedWaves (UNEP/MAP SCP/RAC) and is part of the Regional Action Plan on Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP) in the Mediterranean. For more information, please check the Action Plan on SCP in the Mediterranean Factsheetn.9 (Fossil-fuel subsidies) available at https://switchmed.eu/policy/indicator-factsheets-on-scp-in-the-mediterranean/
