Clean technology has a big role to play in building up the EU’s renewable and low-carbon energy capacity, ever more so given the urgency to reduce EU’s dependency on Russian gas. Most of the emission reductions for this decade can be delivered by already existing solutions, however, reaching climate neutrality will require technologies that are not yet at scale.

While the EU is unlikely to eclipse China or the US in spending on clean technology, the bloc does have unrivalled standard-setting power by way of its regulatory framework. The EU Industrial Strategy recognises the competitive advantage of gearing industry towards climate neutrality; however, the policy does not yet have the necessary flesh on the bone. The European Battery Alliance and the Clean Hydrogen Partnership aim to help in developing these strategic industries, but the question remains whether the EU is scaling up its clean technology sectors at the necessary pace to become climate neutral by 2050.

What are the different innovation initiatives that exist at the EU level for critical climate technologies and infrastructure? And should the EU develop a new innovation framework?
Are the current EU proposals a good basis for the EU battery and hydrogen markets of the future?
What other key technologies are needed to enable the energy transition while also ensuring security of supply? Can Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage be a feasible solution in the EU?
What policy and regulatory support does the private sector need to scale up existing climate clean technologies?
