Decarbonization of the electric power system is the key to realize the “double carbon” target. EU SMEs have to increase the usage of renewable energy while decreasing coal power when facing the ever-growing demand in electricity. However, to meet the target is not simply stop using coal power, but to realize multi-energy integration and complementation by optimizing the combination of coal and new energy, and furtherly establish low-carbon electric power system with renewable energy as the main body.

Faced with an increasingly unstable geopolitical and economic environment, industrial policy has been inserted as a core component in the agendas of the world’s largest three economies – the United States (US), China, and the European Union (EU). These strategies and regulations on renewable and low-carbon energy technologies, raw materials and technologies of the future are likely to result in profound implications on the global supply and value chains while reshaping industries especially high-tech sector such as semiconductors.

What is the global geopolitical and trade outlook look like amid this global industrial strategy race? What are the implications of the varying policy measures on the strategies of multinational companies? As the world is seemingly moving away from globalisation, how will the elevation of industrial strategies impact the liberalisation of global trade?

Published in June 2020 by the European Parliament and European Council, the European Union (EU) taxonomy for sustainable activities sets a framework to classify ‘green’ or ‘sustainable’ economic activities executed in the bloc. The aim is to fuel investments to meet the objectives outlined in the EU’s Green Deal strategies and achieve the sustainable transformation of the bloc’s economy.
Following the publication of the EU taxonomy, the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) and the European Commission published the first Common Ground Taxonomy (CGT) in November 2021, with further updates a year later. This document lists activities that meet green finance definitions in both the EU and China, making it easier for international investors to provide financial support to Chinese borrowers for sustainable projects.
