Romanians Might Pay Duty On Carbon Dioxide Emissions – Official

Romanians might be compelled to pay a tax on carbon dioxide emissions, and the collected amounts would be further invested in carbon storage units, but the issue won't be approached in the near future, Romanian Economy Ministry secretary of state Tudor Serban said Tuesday.

„There will come a time when we should consider storing carbon, through the construction of storage units that are expensive, at around EUR1 billion per unit, and we would have to ensure financing sources,” Serban said during a seminar on the reorganization of the energy production sector.

However, Serban added this issue has nothing to do with the reorganization of the country’s energy production sector and will not be „approached” in the near future.
