The Alliance of Energy Intensive Industries (AEIIs) represents more than 30,000 European companies. Together, these are amongst Europe's largest energy consumers and directly employ more than 2.8 million people. The AEII wants to make a success of the Energy Union. We see it as a potential enabler for European industrial competitiveness and as a unique opportunity to deliver on Europe’s ambitious transition to a low-carbon energy system.

Brussels, 6 May 2026 - Europe’s steel industry has warned that the EU’s proposed Industrial Accelerator Act (IAA) risks undermining its industrial and climate ambitions, unless it ensures that demand for low-carbon steel prioritises production within the EU.
EUROFER strongly supports the Act’s objective of creating lead markets for low-carbon steel as a critical tool to unlock the massive investments needed for the green transition of the European steel industry and facilitate the market uptake of low-carbon steel.
The signatories call on the European Parliament and Council to ensure an effective and broad extension of the CBAM to relevant steel and aluminium intensive downstream industries.
