In March 2025, the European Commission released an Industrial Action Plan for the European automotive sector, addressing the significant transformation and challenges faced by the industry. The plan outlines concrete measures to secure global competitiveness and maintain a strong European production base through action in five key areas: innovation and digitalisation, clean mobility, competitiveness and supply chain resilience, skills and social dimension, and level playing field and business environment.

The Battery Booster package is a key component of the Action Plan aimed at achieving near-term cost competitiveness of domestically produced battery cells and components. The package includes several financial measures and support mechanisms:

Innovation Fund: Up to EUR 3 billion for electric vehicle battery manufacturing. The first call for EUR 1 billion was launched on 3 December 2024.

InvestEU Top-Up: An additional EUR 200 million from the Innovation Fund will support innovative projects along the European battery manufacturing value chain, enabling additional EIB Group venture debt operations over 2025-2027.

Support for Battery Manufacturing: The Commission will make available EUR 1.8 billion in the next two years to support companies manufacturing batteries in the EU by mobilising resources from the Innovation Fund.

EU Direct Production Support: The Commission will explore possibilities for direct production support to companies manufacturing batteries in the EU, potentially combined with State aid.

Non-Price Criteria: When setting up funding instruments, non-price criteria such as resilience requirements will be considered for both EU and Member State funding.

European Content Requirements: Upcoming legislation, including the Industrial Decarbonisation Accelerator Act and the Circular Economy Act, will address European content requirements on battery cells and components in electric vehicles sold in the EU.

Standardisation and Guidance: The Commission will provide clarity on a simple calculation method for the battery carbon footprint and explore standardisation interventions to benefit the European battery ecosystem.

This package aims to boost European added value, support the entire battery value chain, and ensure a resilient and competitive battery manufacturing sector in Europe.

Oil Industry Braces for Years-Long Iran War

Oil producers, traders, and refiners are bracing for a prolonged war between the United States and Iran in the Persian Gulf with little to no hope of a quick resolution. By extension, they are also preparing for higher prices for longer, a theme present at this year’s edition of the Asia Pacific Petroleum Conference. Reuters’ Clyde Russell reported this week that the mood at APPEC was not particularly cheerful as hostilities in the Middle East escalate once again, suggesting achieving peace would be quite a challenge. The Reuters columnist…

Stolen Electricity is Powering Illegal Crypto Farms Across the Globe

Electricity theft is a global problem, and it’s getting more dire all the time. While the problem is most common in developing countries, where grid infrastructure is limited and utilities and state authorities have lower oversight capacities, developed countries are not immune either. This theft can occur in many forms and at many scales, from individuals tapping into power lines to power their individual residences to large-scale and sophisticated theft schemes to power entire cryptocurrency mining farms. Just this week, Mexican authorities…

The Race to Solve Nuclear Energy’s Biggest Problem

Nuclear power is growing in popularity once again as governments worldwide look to diversify their energy mix and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Several countries are now looking to develop or expand their nuclear energy capacity over the coming decades. However, one challenge remains – nuclear waste. Disposing of waste materials from nuclear energy operations remains a complex task with no perfect solution. As countries worldwide have grown their nuclear power capacity, many governments are still struggling to decide on the best solution…

Iran’s Security Crackdown Runs Into Resistance From Within

Iran's parliament is trying to turn fears of foreign infiltration into law. But as lawmakers work through the legislation, the debate is exposing an increasingly awkward question for the Islamic Republic: How far should the state go in policing Iranians' contact with the outside world? At the center of that debate is Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, who, at least publicly, is doing a balancing act. He has defended the need for tougher measures against foreign infiltration while warning that the current draft of the legislation goes too…

Why More Homes Are Switching From Gas to Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to gas-powered central heating systems and are increasingly being used in new construction, often driven by government incentives. A heat pump uses technology similar to that found in a refrigerator or an air conditioner, extracting heat from a source, such as the surrounding air, and amplifying and transferring the heat to where it is needed. As most of the heat is transferred rather than generated, heat pumps are far more efficient than conventional heating technologies such as boilers…
