| Abstract | This final chapter uses the data compiled for the 2015 edition of the OECD Inventory to derive a few results and indicators on the magnitude and nature of support for fossil fuels in OECD countries and the selected partner economies. The first section looks at broad trends in aggregate support and relates the observed evolution to recent policy changes and reforms. Section 3.2 looks at the characteristics of individual support measures to better understand the way support is provided to producers and consumers. Section 3.3 puts consumer support in perspective by assessing it in the broader context of countries’ energy taxation. Finally, section 3.4 concludes by suggesting that further action be taken by policy makers to continue reforming measures that support fossil fuels. |
