In 2023, the Netherlands led European countries in environmentally related tax revenue from taxes on pollution in scientific research and development, with $6.33 million USD PPP. The United Kingdom followed, while Latvia saw the largest year-on-year increase at 31.69%. Conversely, Slovenia experienced a significant decline of 26.2%. The overall trend shows varying fluctuations with countries like Hungary and Serbia experiencing solid growth, while Iceland and Romania registered slight decreases.
