EU industry is proving more resilient than expected. Manufacturing output was up 0.7% in Q2 2026 year-on-year, despite high fossil fuel prices, supply disruption and extreme summer heat. ECNO’s latest quarterly bulletin looks at whether EU policy is set up to keep it that way. tinyurl.com/2p2jaa4x
Cover page of the ECNO “Clean Industrial Transition Monitor” Quarterly Bulletin 02/2026. The page highlights developments in climate-related costs, manufacturing resilience, industrial employment and EU policy proposals for industrial decarbonisation.

Lower fossil fuel demand doesn't just cut emissions. It can also reduce EU's exposure to energy shocks. Our bulletin finds that spending on imported fossil fuels during the recent Strait of Hormuz crisis was 24% lower than during the 2022 energy crisis due to a reduction in fossil fuel demand.

Quarterly Bulletin 01/2026: Clean Industrial Transition Monitor | ECNO
As policymakers respond to the economic impacts of the recent disruption in fossil fuel markets caused by the US-Iran war and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, critical decisions are also being made on the future direction of the EU's Clean Industrial Deal. The first edition of the Clean Industrial Transition Monitor Quarterly Bulletin tracks developments in important economic indicators relevant to EU industry and monitors key policy developments under the Clean Industrial Deal.

Our 2026 NECP update covers all 27 Member States. The assessment finds persistent gaps in renewables, energy efficiency, policy impacts and the phase-out of fossil fuel subsidies. With Poland’s final NECP still pending, the picture is clearer, but not yet reassuring. 🔗 tinyurl.com/4uw6cb2j

Food waste goes far beyond what’s tossed in the bin. It's a sign of deeper inefficiencies in EU food systems, with major climate, social, and economic impacts. New research from ECNO shows that food waste is a major barrier to the EU climate neutrality goals. 🧵 (1/3)
