Ahead of the presentation of the actual proposal of the Commission for a #Net #Zero #Industry #Act (#NZIA) next week on 14 March, some curiosities from the leak found at @POLITICOEurope where I am wondering to which extent they will be found back in the actual proposal. /1

Then there is the issue of the extension of this list by means of delegated act (or not, because this is an 'essential element) /3
RT @repasi: Legal fun fact in the draft proposal for a Net Zero Industry Act (#NZIA). The list of eligible technologies can be amended by the Commission by means of a #Delegated #Act. Remember the #Taxonomy? Legal Service of the Commission asks now: "Isn't it an essential element"? It is! /1

Then there is the derogation from the 'do no significant harm' principle for investments in 'Net Zero Industry Valleys' in Article 14(5): /4

There are the regulatory sandboxes in Article 15, which allow effectively for a derogation from safety rules in order to provide for a 'controlled environment', in which technologies can be developed and for which companies can apply. /5

Let's talk about money: further deviations from the EU State Aid regime for 'guarantees' and 'measures aimed at de-risking agreements with off-takers' (Article 19(4)). The financial sources for this can come from the Emission Trading Scheme (ETS) and Invest EU. /6

One of my favorites: Art. 24 on public procurement and the criterion 'security of supply', which refers to the 'need to diversify supply sources' and which can be weighed up to 40% of the award criteria. All in: businesses now will analyze their supply chains in depth! #CSDDD /7

Curious about the final proposal to be presented on 14 March and how these curiosities will look like in the final proposal. /end

There is of course the list of eligible 'strategic net-zero technologies' /2
RT @repasi: Groundhog day vibes! Acc to leaks of the Net Zero Industry Act (#NZIA) seen at @POLITICOEurope, #nuclear technologies are amongst the privileged strategic net-zero technologies. Memories of the #Taxonomy DA come up. But now it's an ordinary legislative procedure. Let's fight this
