The emissions reduction target for 2040 may be integrated into climate legislation in the early months of 2025. Some senior officials of the Commission advocate for a package approach, along the lines of the ‘Fit for 55’ package. If confirmed, the legislative proposals will be formally presented in 2026.

Provisional agreement reached
The Council and the European Parliament reached a provisional deal on the ‘Net-Zero Industry Act’ (NZIA). The NZIA aims to ease conditions and provide certainty for investors and promoters of net-zero technology manufacturing projects. “Biomass technologies”, originally excluded from the Commission proposal, are listed in Annex X. The Annex lists final products primarily used in net-zero technologies. For more information, please contact Ennio Prizzi.
