Summary

The bill provides direction for the gradual reduction of Estonia's dependence on imported fossil fuels. The bill strengthens the resilience of the economy and society to climate change. For this purpose, a clear framework will be created that directs the development of the economy towards the introduction of clean energy, resource efficiency and climate neutrality. The bill supports the competitiveness of companies by encouraging innovation and the development of low-emission technologies. It is important greater valorization of local resources and application of circular economy principles that help reduce costs and dependence on external inputs. Also, the direction of sustainable development improves companies' access to financing and strengthens their position in international markets. In summary, the bill contributes to the long-term stability of the economy, strategic independence and the growth of people's well-being. In the development of the law, it has been sought balance between different constitutional values, insofar as no fundamental right, interest or purpose has automatic priority over others. This means that other interests and goals, including national defense ones, must also be considered when implementing the principles of the Climate-Resistant Economy Act. The bill defines climate-related concepts and sets climate goals and principles that support the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and the impact of climate change adaptation.
