The Commission’s recently adopted Competitiveness Compass charts a clear course for the EU. It underscores the importance in ensuring sustainable prosperity in its competitiveness agenda while preserving its unique social market economy. Succeeding in this transition will the EU safeguard its sovereignty, economic security, and global influence.
As the continent transitions towards a net-zero economy, shaping a favourable market to develop and manufacture the clean technologies for this transformation is key. This is not just imperative to meet the EU’s climate neutrality target, but a significant opportunity for the EU to build a clean, innovative, and competitive economy in a carbon constrained world.
The forthcoming Clean Industrial Deal will play a central role in putting Europe on its desired path. It aims to secure the EU as an attractive location for manufacturing, including energy intensive industries, and to promote cleantech and new circular business models.
