EU policymakers look to raise IAA Made in Europe threshold to 50%
A draft report on the European Commission's proposed Industrial Accelerator Act, prepared by three MEPs, proposes raising the Made in Europe and low-carbon content threshold for strategic sectors to 50% by 2036. The measures aim to ensure public funds support domestic industries, increase EU content in net-zero technologies, and introduce stricter definitions and component requirements to prevent circumvention.
Why it matters: This bears directly on the briefing's theme of EU industrial policy, as it ties public funds to domestic manufacturing thresholds.
