Comments and Recommendations on the European Commission’s Industrial Decarbonisation Accelerator Act

This document presents input from the DigitalTrade4.EU consortium on the European Commission’s proposed Industrial Decarbonisation Accelerator Act. It advocates for integrating digital trade solutions—particularly Digital Product Passports (DPPs), interoperable standards like eIDAS 2.0 and MLETR, and international digital trade agreements—to accelerate permitting, de-risk priority decarbonisation projects, and create trusted lead markets for low-carbon industrial goods. The submission emphasizes SME support, global standard-setting, and the synergistic alignment of the EU’s green and digital transitions to enhance industrial competitiveness and climate resilience.
