EU Commission adopts new State aid framework enabling support for clean energy

The European Commission has today adopted a new State aid framework supporting the Clean Industrial Deal (CISAF) to enable Member States to push forward the development of clean energy, industrial decarbonisation and clean technology. The CISAF sets out the conditions under which Member States can grant support for investments and objectives in line with EU State aid rules. Under the Framework, the Commission will authorise aid schemes introduced by Member States to boost clean industry, enabling the swift roll-out of individual aid. The CISAF will be in place until 31 December 2030.

The new framework notably simplifies State aid rules in five main areas: (i) the roll-out of renewable energy and low-carbon fuels; (ii) temporary electricity price relief for energy-intensive users to ensure the transition to low-cost clean electricity; (iii) decarbonisation of existing production facilities; (iv) the development of clean tech manufacturing capacity in the EU, and; (v) the de-risking of investments in clean energy, decarbonisation, clean tech, energy infrastructure projects and projects supporting the circular economy.
