Confindustria-Bdi-Medef, strengthen European public spending towards businesses

The industrial confederations BDI, Confindustria, and Medef emphasize the need for increased public investment in Europe to enhance competitiveness. They argue that current investment levels are insufficient to meet demands and stress the importance of stable energy prices for industrial competitiveness. The confederations call for sustainable costs related to the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) and advocate for policies that attract private investments while maintaining competitive conditions against global rivals. They highlight the necessity of a technology-neutral approach to energy and climate policy to support the European manufacturing base.
