cepInput No 12 | 2020 26 May 2020 Environmental Taxation in France Greening the French Culture of Taxation Marie-Laure Dauteuil, Ola Hanafi & Marion Jousseaume In the run-up to potential initiatives of the EU Commission as part of the European Green Deal, the effectiveness of environmental taxation in Europe needs to improve. For France this means: Environmental taxation in France is characterized by a wide range of low-rate taxes, mainly in the transport sector. The French bonus-malus system proved to be successful in reducing CO 2 emissions from new vehicles but suffered from rebound effects. In 2020, France has increased its non-energy environmental taxes. This should be the start of a further gradual rise in environmental tax rates – including energy tax rates based on the CO 2 content of fossil fuels – in line with the other EU Member States. The EU should set harmonized criteria for environmental taxation by its Member States to create a level playing field in the internal market. To improve their acceptance, environmental taxes must be freed from the corset of having to be spent on environmental purposes or to increase the State budget. Instead, France should redistribute a considerable share of the revenues from environmental taxes to households and industries. France should design its environmental taxation in a way that matches the specific purpose of a tax and meets with public acceptance. © shutterstock 2 cepInput Environmental Taxation in France Content 1 Introduction .......................................................................................................................... 3 Download 373.93 Kb.
