The climate ambitions of the next EU Commission

Today in the EU

All eyes are on Teresa Ribera, after President von der Leyen tasked the Spanish politician with steering Europe's green transition while ensuring its competitiveness. Despite the prestige attached to the role, Ribera sits as one of the few socialists among predominantly conservative colleagues, with whom she might have to compromise during the next mandate. Who will she collaborate with, and what can we expect from the incoming environment and energy commissioners?

In this episode, host Giada Santana and Environment hub editor Donagh Cagney discuss the commissioner nominees and the future of EU energy and environment policy.
