Meeting such challenges requires urgent action, as set out in the objectives for a sustainable future at the heart of the UN Development Goals and the European Commission’s Green Deal. EFSA is committed to supporting these objectives in cooperation with other EU agencies, Member States and international partners.

Waarom deze studie?
Vóór de start van de onderhandelingen over een handelsovereenkomst verricht de Commissie een effectbeoordeling en tijdens de uitvoering ervan een duurzaamheidseffectbeoordeling.
Afzonderlijke beoordelingen van handelsovereenkomsten laten echter niet de gecombineerde, cumulatieve effecten zien van de verschillende overeenkomsten waarover de EU onderhandelt of die zij heeft ondertekend. De Commissie is meermaals verzocht om een meer uitgesplitste analyse van de landbouwsector dan gewoonlijk het geval is in haar duurzaamheidseffectbeoordelingen.
Joint Research Center of JRC) in 2016 een eerste studie naar de cumulatieve effecten uitgevoerd. In juli 2019 kondigde de Commissie een update van die studie aan, om rekening te houden met een aantal recent gesloten vrijhandelsovereenkomsten (met Japan, Vietnam, Merco
The EU trade agenda is set to have an overall positive impact on the EU economy and the agri-food sector, according to a new study published on Tuesday.
The study carried out by the European Commission s Joint Research Centre (JRC) covers the cumulative effects of 12 trade agreements on the agri-food sector by 2030, an update on a 2016 study.
It finds that trade agreements are due to result in substantial increases in agri-food exports, with more limited increases in imports.
The Commission says it confirms the best approach to protect vulnerable sectors is to grant a limited amount of lower-duty imports, such as the 99,000t Mercosur beef quota.
Latest Hydropower Technology Trends
The energy companies are adopting new technologies that can improve the efficiency of hydropower.
FREMONT, CA : The workshop, organized by the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC), focused on emerging technology developments to increase the versatility, performance, and cost-efficiency of hydropower.
Hydropower flexibility
Strategies for combating climate change require a high proportion of renewable energy sources (RES). The RES variable generation needs additional hydropower technologies to offer greater versatility over an expanded range of hydraulic conditions.
Some of the most prominent flexibility technologies being developed are stabilizer fins, an adjustable diaphragm installed in the draft tube cone, J-grooves, air injection/admission, high/low velocity and low/high discharge axial water injection, cone wall tangential water injection, counter-flow tangential component of the axial water injection, excess flow rate eject
