An alliance of cleantech companies and civil society proposes 15 measures to ship a joint roadmap for Europe’s decarbonisation and competitiveness underneath the Clear Industrial Deal.
This morning, T&E, alongside 15 different organizations, despatched key recommendations to the Fee for the Clear Industrial Deal (CID), set for publication on February 26. The CID should present sturdy incentives for EU-based industries to undertake cleantech, facilitating their transition towards decarbonised, round, and modern enterprise fashions. The continued world cleantech race justifies public help for home industries, however such funding should information firms towards significant decarbonisation.
Though the EU hosts innovators in sectors like inexperienced metal, battery manufacturing, and EV charging, clear alternatives for development and scaling stay restricted. Combined demand indicators and a fragmented European market undermine the enterprise case for modern, decarbonised merchandise.
To handle these challenges, the letter outlines 15 concrete suggestions throughout three pillars. First, growing entry to scrub and reasonably priced home power, which is crucial for the expansion of a aggressive industrial base. Second, a European industrial technique that advances decarbonisation and competitiveness, with a sector-specific lens for key industries. Lastly, a Clear Funding Plan is required to unlock personal funding by way of monetary incentives and de-risking mechanisms.
For T&E, a key precedence is establishing focused monetary help for scaling-up key strategic applied sciences. This contains enshrining sturdy “Made-in-EU” and sustainability necessities to State Help and EU funding, particularly underneath the longer term European Competitiveness Fund. One other European precedence must be to create lead markets by way of inexperienced public procurement and to deploy sensible de-risking and aggressive bidding approaches to draw personal funding by means of InvestEU and the Innovation Fund.
“The Clean Industrial Deal must tackle the major EU’s investment challenge by driving decarbonisation and innovation. The future European Competitiveness Fund should be the financial backbone of a green industrial strategy, scaling up domestic clean tech manufacturing in key sectors like batteries and clean fuels for aviation and shipping. Beyond the next EU budget, the CID must secure substantial new funding to close the investment gap through 2030.” —Until Eichler, Sustainable Finance Coverage Officer at T&E.
