Description

The Green Recovery Tracker platform provides concise information on national recovery measures in EU member states and assesses their contribution to the green transition. It offers evidence-based information to policy- and decision-makers in European and national institutions as well as in other organisations.

Tool Outcome

The assessment framework ranges from “very positive” to “very negative”, with different shades of green and categories for measures that cannot be directly assessed. Measures that are fully supportive of the green transition achieve the best assessment, and measures that are strong obstacles to this transition receive the worst score.

Sustainability Criteria

The key indicators of the assessment measures the effect of any given intervention on climate mitigation, i.e. emissions reductions, in the context of the transition to climate neutrality. The assessment methodology builds on the EU taxonomy as well as, with regards to climate mitigation, on the climate tracking methodology outlined in Annex VI of the RRF Regulation.
