Sustainability and decarbonisation: how can the EU’s industrial coverage assist industry’s efforts?

Ahead of its Annual Meeting and Joint Conference with CEIR and Pneurop in Brussels this May, Europump president Vanni Vignoli looks on the EU’s roadmap for industrial assist.
Vanni Vignoli, president of Europump.
Following its bulletins of 5 May 2021 updating the New Industrial Strategy proposed in 2020, the European Commission has additional indicated that it’ll rely quite heavily on trade to deliver on the most important challenges confronted by our economies and societies in Europe. This is especially the case in relation to sustainability, digital transformation, and global competitiveness, in addition to the want to overcome the crisis provoked by the Covid-19 pandemic. The EU Recovery and Resilience Plan launched in Spring 2021 is basically building on the capability of European industry to design and produce the building blocks of the twin green and digital transition. At the identical time, the EU is shaping a dense regulatory framework that doesn’t at all times assist the liberty and adaptability wanted for companies to grow and compete globally.
The European expertise industries, and in particular our pumps, compressors, taps and valves sectors, have for a really lengthy time thought of the enhancement of their world competitiveness throughout the challenges of societal and environmental challenges, notably by contributing to the preparation of vitality effectivity and ecolabel rules. In parallel, digitalisation has provided elevated alternatives and brought new challenges, together with debates on the appropriate regulatory degree (sharing of business knowledge, synthetic intelligence, cybersecurity, etc).
These developments, amidst ever more fierce worldwide competitors, require that public authorities and industry in the EU work more and more extra closely to design and deploy strategies that reinforce our competitiveness and our contribution to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This will be the topic of the initial debate kicking off our Joint EU Policy Conference, which is able to bring together key coverage makers from the three EU policy establishments in command of the Industrial Strategy and three Executives representing and illustrating the achievements enjoyed, and challenges nonetheless faced, by these three key sectors of trade.
Specific Technical and Policy Issues
As the regulatory panorama throughout Europe, and certainly the entire world, turns into ever extra complex, the burden on trade only increases. It subsequently falls to sector specific trade organisations, similar to Europump, CEIR and Pneurop, to identify and advise on those technical and policy points most related to their respective sectors. In our specific arena, that relates, after all, to the manufacture, distribution and use of pumps and all pump associated tools – an enormous and important subset of industry, given the width and breadth of pump applications.
Against this backdrop, one of the primary considerations when determining the core themes for the joint convention was to take care of a direct reference to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs). Within this focus, the three associations intend to focus on how, together with the importance for firms to handle technical aspects impacting their every day enterprise operations, they contemplate the constructive role of trade in addressing societal challenges. Indeed, all the classes may have a technical theme matching essentially the most acceptable UN SDG, and with representation from the European Commission along with technical specialists from industry and/or analysis institutes, they will each be reflective of the present legislative terrain, as it relates to pumps and pumping techniques in the following key areas:
Circular Economy & Eco-design (Relevant UN Sustainable Development Goal no. 12: Responsible Consumption and Production)
Industry’s Digital Transformation and Innovation (Relevant UN Sustainable Development Goal no. 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure)
The restriction of use of supplies and substances of concern (Relevant UN Sustainable Development Goal no. 6: Clean Water and Sanitation)
The regulatory and legislative panorama across Europe is becoming more and more complex, and industry, in all its guises, needs to be aware and prepared for what’s coming. By partaking with these commerce organisations that characterize your best pursuits, you presumably can keep abreast of all the compliance developments as they affect your small business and the areas by which you operate.
Europump’s 2022 Annual Meeting & Joint Conference will take place in Brussels on 9–11 May 2022 at the NH Collection Grand Sablon, Rue Bodenbroek – Bodenbroekstraat, 2, B-1000 Brussels, Belgium.
