Inventaire suisse des subventions aux énergies fossiles

The report inventories Swiss fossil fuel subsidies according to the ACCTS framework, detailing specific exemptions, measures aligned with the Standardized Carbon Price Measure (SCPM), and non-exempt subsidies. It highlights that the ACCTS provides the first legal definition of fossil fuel subsidies, focusing on mechanisms that promote production or consumption rather than just trade distortion.

• The ACCTS framework defines fossil fuel subsidies as mechanisms that promote the production or consumption of fossil fuels, specifically including state financial contributions and support for revenues or prices to lower usage costs or encourage production across the value chain, including tax reductions.
• Switzerland utilizes the Standardized Carbon Price Measure (SCPM) mechanism, which allows financial contributions to consumption to be considered subsidies only if they cause the carbon price to fall below a committed level.
• In 2023, the largest identified subsidy under specific exceptions was the exemption for aviation fuels, totaling 1,517,363 thousand francs.
• Other identified subsidies under specific exceptions in 2023 include reimbursements for greenhouse gas emission reduction commitments (155,820 thousand francs), institutional beneficiary exemptions (5,323 thousand francs), and international agreement-based exemptions (2,596 thousand francs).
• The inventory lists non-exempt subsidies including customs enclaves in Samnaun and Sampuoir (7,720 thousand francs), partial reimbursements for certain stationary uses (3,122 thousand francs), and partial reimbursements for CCF installations (278 thousand francs).
