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 seems on the EU’s roadmap for industrial help.

Following its announcements of 5 May 2021 updating the New Industrial Strategy proposed in 2020, the European Commission has further indicated that it will rely quite heavily on trade to deliver on the most important challenges confronted by our economies and societies in Europe. This is particularly 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 largely building on the potential of European business to design and produce the constructing blocks of the dual green and digital transition. At the identical time, the EU is shaping a dense regulatory framework that does not always support the liberty and adaptability wanted for corporations to grow and compete globally.
The European know-how industries, and particularly our pumps, compressors, taps and valves sectors, have for a really lengthy time thought of the enhancement of their world competitiveness within the challenges of societal and environmental challenges, notably by contributing to the preparation of energy effectivity and ecolabel regulations. In parallel, digitalisation has provided increased opportunities and introduced new challenges, together with debates on the appropriate regulatory stage (sharing of business knowledge, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, etc).
These developments, amidst ever more fierce international competitors, require that public authorities and industry within the EU work more and more more carefully to design and deploy strategies that reinforce our competitiveness and our contribution to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This would be the topic of the preliminary debate kicking off our Joint EU Policy Conference, which will convey collectively key coverage makers from the three EU coverage institutions in cost of the Industrial Strategy and three Executives representing and illustrating the achievements loved, and challenges nonetheless confronted, by these three key sectors of trade.
Specific Technical and Policy Issues

As the regulatory landscape throughout Europe, and certainly the whole world, turns into ever more advanced, the burden on industry only increases. It subsequently falls to sector specific commerce organisations, similar to Europump, CEIR and Pneurop, to establish and advise on those technical and policy points most related to their respective sectors. In our particular enviornment, that relates, in fact, to the manufacture, distribution and use of pumps and all pump related tools – an enormous and important subset of industry, given the width and breadth of pump functions.
Against this backdrop, one of many major considerations when figuring out 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 spotlight how, along with the significance for companies to handle technical features impacting their day by day enterprise operations, they think about the constructive role of industry in addressing societal challenges. Indeed, all of the sessions may have a technical theme matching probably the most appropriate UN SDG, and with representation from the European Commission together with technical experts from trade and/or analysis institutes, they may every be reflective of the current legislative terrain, as it pertains to pumps and pumping methods within 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 landscape throughout Europe is becoming increasingly advanced, and industry, in all its guises, must be conscious and prepared for what’s coming. By participating with these trade organisations that symbolize your greatest pursuits, you probably can keep abreast of all of the compliance developments as they have an result on your small business and the areas in which you operate.
Europump’s 2022 Annual Meeting & Joint Conference will take place in Brussels on 9–11 May 2022 on the NH Collection Grand Sablon, Rue Bodenbroek – Bodenbroekstraat, 2, B-1000 Brussels, Belgium.
