Mobilizing Private Capital for the Green Transition
One Size Fits All? Priorities for the EU’s Green Industrial Policy
Accelerating Climate Action in EU Agriculture and Food
How can energy reforms improve European competitiveness?
High energy prices challenge European businesses that cannot compete with American and Chinese rivals. The main driver is the EU’s unsustainably high import of expensive fossil fuel from geopolitical adversaries caused by stagnating European electrification.
An effective transition must ensure an attractive future for farmers where agriculture is economically viable while producing healthy and sustainable food. The time is now to design suitable policies and incentives that take into account the specific characteristics of the agrifood sector and overall constraints on public budgets.
Should the EU prioritise the decarbonisation of energy-intensive industries, or should it build leadership in a new generation of cleantech?
