Each episode examines a specific mechanism — from EU ETS permit prices to the impact of US Inflation Reduction Act subsidies on corporate balance sheets — and traces how these policies ripple through energy markets, manufacturing, and consumer prices. Lucas brings the numbers and institutional context (how the World Bank's carbon pricing dashboard works, what the Social Cost of Carbon actually measures), while Luna pushes for the practical implications: does a €50 carbon tax actually change behavior? What happens when a steel plant in Germany faces both emission costs and Chinese competition? The show serves investors, policy analysts, and business leaders who need to understand climate-related financial risk without the activism or greenwashing. Listeners walk away able to parse a carbon offset market, evaluate a company's net-zero roadmap, and spot the difference between a real price signal and a political slogan. How do you put a number on a ton of carbon — and who pays when that number is wrong? #CarbonPricing #GreenPolicy #SustainabilityCosts #EUETS #Infla…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T06:19:03.667812+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781"},"episode":{"title":"Why Green Subsidies Are Creating a Trade War","slug":"why-green-subsidies-are-creating-a-trade-war","published_at":"2026-06-28T06:58:45+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781/why-green-subsidies-are-creating-a-trade-war","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/climate-economics/episode-0078.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/climate-economics/episode-0078.mp3","summary":"The U.S. Inflation Reduction Act's green subsidies are provoking retaliation from Europe and Asia. This episode examines the specific case of EU 'carbon border adjustment' tariffs on American solar panels and how the U.S. is responding with counter-subsidies for domestic battery production. We break down the $9.5 billion in EU countervailing duties proposed in May 2026, the WTO disputes brewing, and what this means for the cost of renewable energy globally. Lucas and Luna debate whether subsidy competition accelerates or fragments the green transition. A concrete look at how industrial policy is reshaping climate economics in mid-2026. #GreenSubsidies #TradeWar #InflationReductionAct #CarbonBorderAdjustment #SolarPanels #BatteryProduction #WTO #EU #IndustrialPolicy #ClimateEconomics #RenewableEnergy #CountervailingDuties #SupplyChain #GreenTransition #SubsidyCompetition #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"The U.S. Inflation Reduction Act's green subsidies are provoking retaliation from Europe and Asia.
