Commission Executive Vice President Ribera presents current work projects relating to state aid
Today, the Executive Vice-President of the European Commission (Commission), Teresa Ribera, gave a keynote speech at the Forum Europa Brussels Breakfast. She addressed specific proposals the Commission is already working on:
“Let me give you (…) concrete proposals we are already working on.
We are already working on a new State aid framework to accelerate renewable energy investments and industrial decarbonisation, ensuring sufficient clean tech manufacturing capacity in Europe while preventing wasteful subsidy races between Member States, as stated in the mission letter that President von der Leyen addressed to me. This new framework will give all 27 Member States the tools to support and accelerate critical investments to address real market failures, and not just serve national interests.
(…)
We will simplify, speed up and bring to life new Important Projects of Common European Interest, together with Member States.”
