Ahead of เกจแรงดันน้ำ and Joint Conference with CEIR and Pneurop in Brussels this May, Europump president Vanni Vignoli seems on the EU’s roadmap for industrial support.
Vanni Vignoli, president of Europump.
Following its bulletins of 5 May 2021 updating the New Industrial Strategy proposed in 2020, the European Commission has additional indicated that it will rely fairly closely on business to ship on the major challenges faced by our economies and societies in Europe. This is particularly the case in relation to sustainability, digital transformation, and global competitiveness, as well as the want to overcome the disaster provoked by the Covid-19 pandemic. The EU Recovery and Resilience Plan launched in Spring 2021 is basically constructing on the aptitude of European industry to design and produce the building blocks of the twin green and digital transition. At the identical time, the EU is shaping a dense regulatory framework that doesn’t all the time help the liberty and adaptability needed for companies to grow and compete globally.
The European technology industries, and particularly our pumps, compressors, faucets and valves sectors, have for a very lengthy time thought of the enhancement of their international competitiveness within the challenges of societal and environmental challenges, notably by contributing to the preparation of power effectivity and ecolabel regulations. In parallel, digitalisation has supplied elevated opportunities and brought new challenges, together with debates on the appropriate regulatory stage (sharing of commercial knowledge, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, etc).
These developments, amidst ever extra fierce international competition, require that public authorities and trade in the EU work increasingly extra intently to design and deploy strategies that reinforce our competitiveness and our contribution to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This would be the topic of the preliminary debate kicking off our Joint EU Policy Conference, which is ready to deliver collectively key policy makers from the three EU coverage establishments in command of the Industrial Strategy and three Executives representing and illustrating the achievements loved, and challenges still faced, by these three key sectors of business.
Specific Technical and Policy Issues
As the regulatory panorama throughout Europe, and certainly the entire world, becomes ever extra complex, the burden on industry solely will increase. It due to this fact falls to sector particular trade organisations, corresponding to Europump, CEIR and Pneurop, to identify and advise on these technical and policy points most relevant to their respective sectors. In our particular enviornment, that relates, of course, to the manufacture, distribution and use of pumps and all pump related gear – a huge and necessary subset of business, given the width and breadth of pump purposes.
Against this backdrop, one of the major concerns when determining the core themes for the joint convention was to keep up a direct reference to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs). Within this focus, the three associations intend to highlight how, together with the significance for corporations to address technical elements impacting their daily enterprise operations, they think about the constructive function of business in addressing societal challenges. Indeed, all the periods may have a technical theme matching essentially the most appropriate UN SDG, and with illustration from the European Commission together with technical consultants from trade and/or analysis institutes, they’ll every be reflective of the present legislative terrain, as it pertains to pumps and pumping systems within the following key areas:
Circular Economy & Eco-design (Relevant UN Sustainable Development Goal no. 12: Responsible Consumption and Production)
Industry’s Digital Transformation and Innovation (Relevant UN Sustainable Development Goal no. 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure)
The restriction of use of materials and substances of concern (Relevant UN Sustainable Development Goal no. 6: Clean Water and Sanitation)
