The Green Deal Industrial Plan: How a thriving, EV manufacturing sector can support the EU's green & digital economy

Written By Guest User

ChargeUp Europe calls for:

  • Centering the e-mobility value chain in the Green Deal Industrial Plan: charging stations, software, and other EV enabling tech,should be explicitly recognised as “clean tech”;

  • Including EV charging infrastructures amongst the sectors that will be benefit from simplified and accelerated permitting processes, integrating the guidance from the Sustainable Transport Forum;

  • Avoiding distortion of the single market by complementing action on public subsidies with an EU-wide instrument; as EV charging is a rational, market-driven sector, funding should target the "enablers" of the transition e.g. grid capacity & smartness, training and re-skilling;

  • Bringing a sharper focus on building a single market and the benefits derived from leaner, simpler regulatory frameworks. The Net Zero Act should identify clean tech products that would benefit from the introduction of type approval, such as EV chargers.
