Joint letter – The CID must deliver a bold strategy to reinforce Europe’s global leadership in cleantech & build a competitive net-zero economy

Publish date: February 5, 2025

16 European think tanks, civil society organisations, and industry associations, including Bellona Europa, have sent an open letter to the Commission delivering a bold strategy to build strategic cleantech industries in Europe. The Clean Industrial Deal must incentivise industrial companies to integrate cleantech into their processes and shift to a decarbonised, circular and innovative business model. This strategy should be backed up by commensurate investments and de-risking instruments, to transform the vision of the Competitiveness Compass into concrete action.

This letter calls for the EU to turn the Clean Industrial Deal into an effective Joint Decarbonisation and Competitiveness Roadmap that closes Europe’s innovation-to-market gap.
