SM Emissions Directive landscape

Renew Europe invites you to join the webinar on the Industrial Emissions Directive, taking place on 21 March from 9:30 – 12:00.
This webinar is hosted by our Members Michal Wiezik and Jérémy Decerle.

Why is it time for a debate on the Industrial Emissions Directive?
Industrial activities and the intensive rearing of livestock are responsible for emissions of harmful substances to air, water and soil. Pollution caused by these emissions can lead to health problems and create damage to our ecosystems. European rules to reduce industrial emissions have existed for 15 years, but to achieve the objectives of the Green Deal and the zero-pollution ambition, they require an update.

This is why the European Commission has presented proposals to modernise the Industrial Emissions Directive last year. The revision aims to cover more sources of emissions, make permitting more effective, reduce administrative costs, increase transparency and give more support to innovation and breakthrough technologies. Renew Europe welcomes this update, to make sure we achieve our climate goals, and believes the time is right for an in depth discussion with all stakeholders to make sure the new rules will work for everyone.
