The Alliance of Energy-Intensive Industries (AEII) outlines its views on the 2040 climate target. An ambitious 2040 climate target demands a profound reshaping of energy-intensive industries – the backbone of the EU’s manufacturing strength and strategic value chains.

Key takeaways:

  • Enabling conditions to secure Europe’s competitiveness
  • Ensuring robust and effective carbon leakage protection.
  • Enhancing policy integrity through transparency is essential for the 2040 Climate Target.
  • Strengthening flexibility and ensure equal access to decarbonisation options across ETS sectors.
  • Advancing the integration of international credits.
