On February 20, the Fusion Industry Association (FIA) submitted its feedback to the European Commission on a draft delegated act under the Net-Zero Industry Act (NZIA). The NZIA, which came into force in June 2024, puts the EU on track to strengthen its domestic manufacturing capacities of key clean technologies. The Act focuses on 19 different net-zero technologies listed in its Annex, including a category called “other nuclear technologies” that currently includes fusion energy. The draft delegated act aims to amend the NZIA Annex by clearly defining, for each technology, the final products and key components used in their production.

Fusion in EU Net Zero Industry Act

On November 21, the European Parliament adopted its position on the Net Zero Industry Act (NZIA), amending the initial proposal of the Commission to include “fusion energy technologies” among the net-zero technologies in their aims to boost decarbonization efforts in Europe. The Act sets a target for Europe to produce 40% of its annual deployment needs in net-zero technologies by 2030, to capture 25% of the global market value for these technologies, and to address challenges in scaling up these technologies’ manufacturing capacities.
