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

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

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

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
