StudyClimate Neutrality by 2045 – Global Context and Impacts on Germany

The creation of the new special investment fund of € 500 billion after the German election 2025 contains the constitutional requirement (Article 143h of Germany's Basic Law) that climate protection investments funded by the special fund must serve the goal of climate neutrality by the year 2045. The discussion about this is just getting underway. To contribute to this debate the Clean Energy Forum (CEF) has prepared the impulse study "Climate Neutrality 2045 – Global Context and Impacts on Germany".
