The European Union has a once-in-a-generation opportunity to lead the race to net zero. As policymakers enact ambitious decarbonisation targets, EU cleantech innovators are paving the way for a new climate and industrial leadership.To seize this leadership, the EU must learn to scale up its clean technologies and create the conditions for wide adoption and a just transition.
Our new series of events is bridging the gap between the innovation and policy worlds. Each quarter, cleantech CEOs and investors share the stage with leading policymakers to make the most of the decade of action.

#CleantechforEuropeThe report identifies critical challenges facing the cleantech sector, including funding gaps for scaling technologies, complex regulatory landscapes, and supply chain bottlenecks. However, these hurdles also present unique opportunities. By aligning policies, streamlining regulations, and fostering cross-border investments, the EU and UK can transform shared climate goals into high-impact solutions. Notably, the analysis highlights that cleantech investment ties between the two regions have strengthened since Brexit, underscoring the potential for partnership despite political divisions.
This roadmap proposes concrete initiatives, from creating a de facto common market to forming a joint UK-EU Clean Growth Taskforce. Together, these steps aim to accelerate the deployment of renewable energy, bolster supply chain resilience, and build critical infrastructure for the clean industries of tomorrow. Now is the time to turn shared ambition into tangible action.
