EU policies have a real impact.

Here are some examples we'd like to share with you:

➤ #EUChipsAct

The EU-funded Infineon chips fab in Germany will create over 1,000 new skilled #jobs.

➤ Green Deal Industrial Plan

France's newly opened, first gigafactory in Billy-Berclau received €1.3 bn in #EU funding.

➤ #REPowerEU

The EU’s biggest geothermal heating system in Szeged, Hungary, provides affordable #energy to over 28,000 households.

#Gelsinger : „[…] it's subsidizing of manufacturing to make us competitive with Asia – it's 30 to 40 percent more expensive to do that in the US – so the CHIPS Act sort of levels the playing field to make our investments in this space competitive […]“.

Das Problem ist, dass #subventionen zum Ausgleich von Standortnachteilen keine nachhaltige Lösung sind. Also wird anschließend weiter subventioniert… ♾️

⛔ No chips = no digital.
Smartphones, electric scooters, trains, smart factories: #Microchips are everywhere.
With the #EUChipsAct the 🇪🇺 will:
👉 double market share to 20% by 2030
👉 create resilient supply chains
👉 reduce external dependencies
👉 build partnerships

🐦🔗: https://n.respublicae.eu/DigitalEU/status/1681605800807084032

Without microchips, there is no digital and green transition.
We must:
🔵 strengthen the EU’s chip and innovation ecosystem
🔵 encourage international cooperation
🔵 encourage investment and funding while avoiding unnecessary market intervention to burden industry

Tiny, yet impactful – we're talking about microchips.

They make our smartphones, trains and entire factories work.

Massively adopted by the European Parliament, the #EUChipsAct will tackle the chip shortage by:

- Accelerating permits for rapid chip investments.

- Empowering SMEs with enhanced chip design support.

- Implementing a crisis response mechanism for supply issues.

- Securing €3.3B for chip research.

- Establishing competence centres to attract talent.

Ne renforçons pas la dépendance de l'Europe aux USA. Les entreprises et universités doivent avoir le droit de développer des relations internationales sans la pression des Américains.

The EU is importing a great majority of the semiconductors needed for its industry.
The new #euCHIPSact aims to lessen this dependency.
Tune in to our #podcast with @EvaMaydell MEP and hear more about this law that was adopted today.
