The EU’s energy commissioner, Günther Oettinger, has spoken out against a planned 40% cut in CO2 emissions across the EU by 2030, just a week after he helped to launch the policy.

Speaking at an 'Industry Matters' conference in Brussels, he referred to the plan as an ambitious compromise.

EurActiv reported on the 4 February 2014 that pressure was growing on the German commissioner, following his remarks at the conference.

Jean-Michel Charpin, the inspector general of the French government's finances, was also critical of the European Commission’s proposed reform, according to EurActiv on the 4 February 2014. He said that the European Commission's proposed carbon price stabilisation mechanism is a "masterpiece of Brussels technocracy" that could fuel greater market volatility.
