The German energy utility RWE is suing the Netherlands for its mandatory coal phase-out by 2030, seeking €1.4 billion in compensation on the basis of the controversial Energy Charter Treaty. In December 2019, the Dutch state had issued a coal phase-out, which would force RWE to stop burning coal in its Eemshaven power plant by the end of the decade. The environmental and human rights organisations Urgewald and Reclaim Finance call on RWE to withdraw the lawsuit and are asking investors to divest RWE for its repeated anti-climate action lobbying efforts.
