Summary

The book provides a comprehensive guide to the antitrust assessment of climate protection agreements and examines the conditions under which climate objectives can be reconciled with the requirements of competition law. It analyses the opportunities and limits of integrating climate protection into the prohibition of anti-competitive agreements under Article 101 TFEU. Particular attention is paid to the consideration of climate objectives at both the infringement and exemption stages, the applicable legal standards, and existing decisional practice. The book also explores the competition law theories underlying the integration of climate protection and develops proposals for a practical application of the current legal framework.
