Re-Energize: MCC Brussels Discusses Economic Growth Beyond the Green Deal

As European economies grapple with tight regulations, high energy costs and increasing dependence on foreign resources, policymakers, industry leaders, energy and economic experts and analysts gathered at a think tank conference in Brussels to explore alternatives to current EU policies. All three sessions of the MCC Brussels event on Wednesday, entitled New impetus: economic growth beyond the Green Deal, were well-attended. The conference addressed the economic impact of environmental regulations, in particular the Green Deal and its successor, the Clean Industrial Deal. Discussions focused on the deindustrialization of Europe, the challenges of energy affordability and maintaining global competitiveness. With the start of the new mandate of the European Commission, the event critically examined whether a fundamental policy shift is needed to boost economic growth.
