Amidst the growing global economic and geopolitical uncertainties, industrial policy has taken a prominent role as nations worldwide formulate strategies and regulations concerning renewable energy, low-carbon technologies, and future materials. These developments are poised to reshape industries, especially in high-tech sectors like semiconductors, and exert a significant influence on global supply chains. Don't miss this essential discussion that delves into the future of global industrial strategy, its impact on clean technology, and the evolving dynamics of international trade. This event will provide a comprehensive examination of the approaches taken by the EU, China, and the US to foster and establish themselves as leaders in the field of clean technologies through their respective industrial policy initiatives.

Faced with an increasingly unstable geopolitical and economic environment, industrial policy has been inserted as a core component in the agendas of the world’s largest three economies – the United States (US), China, and the European Union (EU). These strategies and regulations on renewable and low-carbon energy technologies, raw materials and technologies of the future are likely to result in profound implications on the global supply and value chains while reshaping industries especially high-tech sector such as semiconductors.

What is the global geopolitical and trade outlook look like amid this global industrial strategy race? What are the implications of the varying policy measures on the strategies of multinational companies? As the world is seemingly moving away from globalisation, how will the elevation of industrial strategies impact the liberalisation of global trade?

Climate change has become one of the focuses that attract global attention. China also proposed at the 2020 United Nations General Assembly to fully implement the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, striving to achieve peak carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060. The first challenge faced by enterprises in reducing emissions is how to calculate emissions more accurately, scientifically, and comprehensively, which is the foundation of enterprise emission reduction. The disclosure of emissions from enterprise products and operations may become a necessary policy requirement in the future. More and more regional markets and supply chains will impose restrictions on emissions to help reduce emissions and assume social responsibility.

European Parliament recently voted to officially pass the proposal on carbon border adjustment mechanism. It is reported that the CBAM plan (carbon tariff) will be implemented from October 1, 2023.

Published in June 2020 by the European Parliament and European Council, the European Union (EU) taxonomy for sustainable activities sets a framework to classify ‘green’ or ‘sustainable’ economic activities executed in the bloc. The aim is to fuel investments to meet the objectives outlined in the EU’s Green Deal strategies and achieve the sustainable transformation of the bloc’s economy.
Following the publication of the EU taxonomy, the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) and the European Commission published the first Common Ground Taxonomy (CGT) in November 2021, with further updates a year later. This document lists activities that meet green finance definitions in both the EU and China, making it easier for international investors to provide financial support to Chinese borrowers for sustainable projects.

The Environment Working Group is pleased to invite you to its 2023 Kick-off Meeting, Chair Elections and Position Paper Discussion on Monday 3rd April 2023, 15:30-17:00 at the European Chamber’s Beijing and Shanghai Offices.

In the first part of this meeting, Rachel Zhang, Climate Change Certification Manager of TÜV SÜD, will present a keynote presentation on the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) : What are the implications for European companies ?



From 1st October, the transition period of the Carbon Board Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) will begin, where the embedded GHG emissions of some exported products will be required to be reported on a quarterly basis. These policy changes will impact many European companies operating in China, particularly due to global pledges to reduce carbon emissions. Which industries will be affected and how will the GHG emissions be calculated? How will this be reported? This keynote presentation will outline the CBAM scheme and share some best practices from a verifier’s perspective.

The second part of the meeting will consist of the Chair Elections and Position Paper Discussion. Candidates running for the elections will introduce themselves and their goals for the Environment Working Group over the next 12 months.
