The president-elect aims to re-join the Paris Agreement and has announced ambitious energy transition plans. Showcasing just how high exp ectations are\, the European Commission has already drawn up plans for a c limate-friendly technology alliance and a wider green trade cooperation. H owever\, this new partnership might not be all smooth sailing. Energy spat s like the one on Nord Stream 2 are set to stay. EU intentions for a carbo n price on imported goods will be difficult to implement in a way acceptab le to both sides. And their aim for leadership in climate-friendly technol ogies – Tesla’s new Gigafactory in the heart of the automobile’s birthplac e in Germany is a case in point – is a source of conflict where the U.S. a nd the EU are already in fierce competition with countries like China.Two days before the inauguration of Joe Biden as U.S. president\, Clean Energy Wire hosts an event exclusively for journalists\, where researchers and p olitical and business analysts share their views on what a change in U.S. leadership means for international climate policy and transatlantic cooper ation on the path to net-zero emissions.
