About the Event


Drawing on technical and policy analysis and stakeholder insights, the study highlights how targeted demand-side policies across six key sectors – automotive, buildings, infrastructure, fertilisers, renewables and defence – can turn Europe's clean industrial ambitions into reality.

This session will explore how lead market policies for materials such as steel, aluminium, cement and ammonia can reshape Europe's industrial landscape, unlocking investment, boosting competitiveness and accelerating decarbonisation.

The discussion will focus on:

  • Practical opportunities and challenges for applying these tools within the EU policy framework
  • How to tailor demand-side measures to different materials and value chains
  • Implications for the upcoming Industrial Accelerator Act
