A Joint Decarbonisation and Competitiveness Plan - Coggle Diagram
A Joint Decarbonisation and Competitiveness Plan
High Energy Costs in Europe
High volatility
Burden on energy-intensive industries
Lower investment due to uncertainty
Rising electricity needs (AI, data centres)
Ambitious EU Climate Targets
Higher short-term industrial costs
ETS free allowances phasing out
Transport and EII transition needs
Strategic Opportunity
Cheap low-marginal-cost renewables
Nuclear as stable baseload
Potential long-term competitive energy advantage
Policy Blockers
Slow permitting for clean energy
Dependence on volatile gas markets
Linked electricity and gas prices
Foreign state-backed competition (China clean tech)
EU Joint Plan
Lower Cost of Energy
Joint gas procurement (LNG)
Limit speculation in energy markets
Long-term contracts with reliable partners
Decouple clean energy pricing from gas
Expand PPAs and CfDs
Reduce energy taxes and surcharges
Accelerate Decarbonisation
Technology-neutral approach
Renewables, nuclear, hydrogen, CCS
Faster permitting and grid expansion
Industrial Competitiveness
Support EU clean-tech manufacturing
Local production quotas in procurement/auctions
EU–third country industrial partnerships
Automotive sector roadmap
A Joint Decarbonisation & Competitiveness Plan
→ High energy costs & volatility
→ Hit to EIIs, lower investment, rising electricity demand
→ Ambitious climate targets
→ Higher transition costs vs US/China
→ Strategic opportunity
→ Renewables + nuclear → lower long-term prices
→ Key barriers
→ Gas-linked electricity prices, slow permitting, foreign subsidised competition
→ EU Plan
→ Lower energy costs: joint gas buying, limit speculation, PPAs/CfDs
→ Faster decarbonisation: tech-neutral, grids + permitting
→ Industrial policy: clean-tech support, partnerships, automotive roadmap
