UE pregătește „Made in Europe” pentru industria prelucrătoare

The European Union is developing new regulations to boost local production and reduce reliance on external suppliers in strategic sectors. The Industrial Accelerator Act aims to increase the manufacturing sector's contribution to the EU's GDP to 20% by 2035. The 'Made in Europe' initiative will introduce criteria related to product origin and carbon emissions for public support schemes. Initially, these rules will apply to strategic industries like steel and automotive, potentially expanding to other energy-intensive sectors. The proposal raises concerns in the UK about limited access for British manufacturers to EU programs and funding, particularly in the automotive and energy sectors. Negotiations on the Industrial Accelerator Act are ongoing, with the final rules yet to be established.
