<p>The European Commission released its long awaited Industrial Accelerator Act (IAA) on the 4th of March. The legislation piece aims to boost manufacturing and grow businesses, while supporting industry's transition to climate neutrality. FEDARENE shares the perspective of Regions and their Energy Agencies on this new impulse to Europe's reindustrialisation.</p>
<p>FEDARENE is the premier European network of regional and local organisations which implement, co-ordinate and facilitate energy and environment policies.</p>
