The Ministerial Committee on Economic Policy has prepared guidelines for measures to be introduced in lieu of the entry in the Government Programme for the removal of the tax ceiling that applies to combined heat and power (CHP) production. The removal of the CHP tax ceiling will be replaced by an increase in the energy tax on heating fuels, with an emphasis on the carbon dioxide component. The aim is to improve the position of renewable energy sources in relation to fossil fuels.
