Common EU rules on energy taxation (Council Directive 2003\/96 \/ EC) require companies that benefit from such exemptions to improve their environmental or energy efficiency beyond what is required by binding EU instruments such as the EU ETS.<\/span> Polish regulations do not, however, require such a level of energy efficiency.<\/span> These laws favor highly polluting activities and are therefore contrary to EU climate goals and cause serious distortions of competition in the EU.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The decision to refer the case to the Tribunal was made as a consequence of Poland’s failure to adapt its legislation to EU law after receiving a reasoned opinion from the Commission.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
