EU Lead Markets Report

How the EU can secure its industrial future

Building the EU’s Clean Industrial Future: Unlocking Investment through Lead Markets, a new report from the Industrial Transition Accelerator (ITA) and E3G, sets out how the EU can trigger billions in investment via policies to create lead markets for clean materials.

Europe faces a strategic opportunity for renewal

The EU has a leading pipeline of announced deep decarbonisation projects, but many are struggling to progress to Final Investment Decision (FID). The EU’s Clean Industrial Deal recommends the importance of lead markets in supporting clean industry. This report analyses and identifies specific policy interventions to enable clean markets.

Key challenges and opportunities included in the briefing include:

Maintaining fossil-based production is unsustainable, financially and environmentally. It risks European industry falling further behind in the global race for clean manufacturing.

The so-called “green premium” for clean commodities has only a marginal effect on end-product prices. Dependence on fossil fuels has proven a far greater inflation risk.

Specific policy interventions are required to generate additional demand for clean commodities in strategic downstream sectors such as automotive, buildings, infrastructure, and fertilisers.

Europe currently has a large pipeline of clean industrial projects, but other countries are rapidly catching up, as many are stalled due to a lack of market demand.
