Climate ambition under the Clean Industrial Deal: Will our tools work for reaching the targets?

The Clean Industrial Deal is the new masterplan to make EU industries competitive with clean energy in view of becoming the first climate-neutral continent. However, the decision on the EU’s 2040 climate target is still pending. There are also concerns that the simplification of key legislation from the European Green Deal will just water down its level of ambition. Meanwhile, industry and agriculture need more tailored support and investment security for their transition.

In this webinar, we will present an update of our European Green Deal Risk Radar. Will the existing and the planned EU laws be effective for reaching our climate goals? Which policy tools will work well? And where will we need to sharpen them?

Join this webinar to discuss the challenges with EU researchers, policy makers and practitioners from industry and agriculture.
