What does the EU do for you?

It gives access to things taken for granted: from a roof over our head to clean energy & transport. Without them, life would not be the same.

Ahead of #EuropeDay, learn about projects that make an impact across European Union.

Our Union is as strong as its steel.

We have put forward a plan to ensure our steel sector keeps its competitive edge, leads Europe in the clean transition, and ensures jobs for generations to come.

Here's how the Steel and Metals Action Plan will turn this into reality ↓
March 20, 2025 at 8:44 AM
@ec.europa.eu published the Action Plan on #Steel and #Metals. #Steel industry needs support in the face of high energy costs, unfair global competition, and the cost of developing low-carbon steelmaking technologies.
Our Energy and Industry Geography Lab has provided input on the plan!
