(6) The net-zero transformation is already causing huge industrial, economic, and geopolitical shifts across the globe, which will become ever more pronounced as the world advances in its decarbonisation efforts. The road to net zero translates into strong opportunities for the expansion of Union’s net-zero industry, making use of the strength of the Single Market, without prejudice to Regulation(EU) 2019/452, by promoting investment in technologies in the field of renewable energy technologies , electricity and heat storage technologies, heat pumps, grid technologies, renewable fuels of non- biological origin technologies, electrolysers and fuel cells, fusion, small modular reactors and related best-in-class fuels, carbon capture, utilisation, and storage technologies, and energy-system related energy efficiency technologies and their supply chains, allowing for the decarbonisation of our economic sectors, from energy supply to transport, buildings, and industry. A strong net zero industry within the European Union can help significantly in reaching the Union’s climate and energy targets effectively, as well as in supporting other Green Deal objectives, while creating jobs and growth.

(64) The scaling up of European net- zero technology industries as well as ensuring Europe’s open strategic autonomy requires significant additional skilled workers which implies important investment needs in re-skilling and upskilling, including in the field of vocational education and training. This should contribute to the creation of quality jobs in line with the targets for employment and training of the European Pillar of Social Rights. The energy transition will require a significant increase in the number of skilled workers in a range of sectors, including renewable energy and energy storage, grid technologies and battery production, and has a great potential for quality job creation. There is nevertheless a mismatch between the skills of European workers and current open positions in the labour market. The skill needs for the fuel cell hydrogen sub- sector in manufacturing alone are estimated at 180.000 trained workers, technicians and engineers by the year 2030, according to the Commission’s European Strategic Energy Technology Plan 65 . In the photo- voltaic solar energy sector, up to 66.000 jobs would be needed in manufacturing alone. The European network of employment services (EURES) is providing information, advice and recruitment or placement for the benefit of workers and employers, including across internal market borders. It is therefore of outmost importance to make these positions attractive and reachable, especially technical careers, including through EU campaigns to promote technical and vocational education. Workers from third countries should also be targeted as the Union only attracts a small share of qualified migrants. Responding to these needs while reaching the Union’s objectives in terms of climate neutrality requires a value chain approach whereby all successive industrial phases are taken into account, from the design of the product (or the service), to the manufacturing phase, including the recycling and reuse of materials, and whereby all the different professions across the value chain are considered. The European network of employment services (EURES) is providing information, advice and recruitment or placement for the benefit of workers and employers, including across internal market borders. The network can play a significant role in using the learning content of training programmes delivered by the skills academies in the creation and deployment of European occupation profiles and by providing information to national employment services about them. _________________ 65 European Commission, Directorate- General for Research and Innovation, Joint Research Centre, The strategic energy technology (SET) plan, Publications Office, 2019, https://data.europa.eu/doi/10.2777/04888.
Amendment 63 #
(65) Since strengthening the manufacturing capacity of key net-zero technologies in the Union will not be possible without a sizeable skilled workforce, it is necessary to introduce measures to boost the activation of more people to the labour market, notably women andand to make the industries and the technical careers concerned by this regulation more attractive, especially to women as the gender balance in is far from being reached in technology-oriented professions, to young people not in employment, education or training (NEETs), and to legally residing migrant workers including via skills first approaches as a complement to qualifications-based recruitment. In addition, in line with the objectives of the Council Recommendation on ensuring a fair transition towards climate-neutrality, specific support for job-to-job transition and with a view to favour lifelong learning and training for workers in redundant and declining sectors are important. This means investing in skills and in quality job creationfor all, while aiming at greater labour market and social inclusion requires a targeted approach towards people who need it the most. This includes people who are excluded from the labour market, have limited access to training opportunities or are in professions which are either at risk of disappearing or whose content and tasks are being highly transformed by new technologies. The end objective should be the creation of quality job required for net-zero technologies in the Union. Building on and fully taking into account existing initiatives such as the EU Pact for Skills, EU level activities on skills intelligence and forecasting, such as by the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (Cedefop) and the European Labour Authority (ELA), and the Blueprints for sectoral cooperation on skills, the objective is to mobilise all actors: Member States authorities, including at regional and local levels, universities, including universities of applied sciences, education and training providers, social partners and industry, in particular SMEs and start ups, to identify skills needs, develop education and training programmes and deploy these at large scale in a fast and operational manner also targeting technical education and careers. Net-zero strategic projects have a key role to play in this regard. Member States and the Commission mayshould ensure financial support includingto deploy the impact and outreach of the Academies and by leveraging the possibilities of the Union budget through instruments such as the European Social Fund Plus, InvestEU, Just Transition Fund, European Regional Development Funds, the Recovery and Resilience Facility, the Modernisation Fund, REPowerEU and the Single Market Programme.

(66) Building on previous experiences, such as the EU Pact for Skills and the European Battery Alliance, European Net- Zero Industry Academies should develop and deploy education and training content to upskill and reskill workers required for key net-zero technology value chains, such as solar photovoltaic and solar thermal technologies, renewable hydrogen technologies and raw materials. The academies would aim to enable the training and education of 100.000 learners each, within three years of their establishment, to contribute to the availability of skills required for the net-zero technologies, including in small and medium-sized enterprises. That content should be developed and deployed with education and training providers in Member States, relevant Member States authorities and social partners. Education and training providers, industry and other actors involved in up- and reskilling in the Member States, such as Public Employment Services, should deliver the content produced by the academies. To ensure skills transparency and portability and the mobility of workers, the European Net-Zero Industry Academies will develop and deploy credentials, including micro- credentials, covering learning achievements. They should be issued in the format of European credentials for learning and could be integrated in EUROPASS and, where relevant, included in National Qualifications Frameworks. Member States are encouraged to support the continuous reskilling and upskilling offered via the academies and the relevant education and training providers in their territories through national programmes and Union funding, including from the European Social Fund Plus, the Recovery and Resilience Facility, the European Regional Development Fund, the Just Transition Mechanism, the Modernisation Fund and the Technical Support Instrument. The Net-Zero Europe Platform should assist in guiding the work of the Academies and providing oversight. local and regional initiatives and on previous experiences, such as hubs for skills development, the EU Pact for Skills and the European Battery Alliance, European Net-Zero Industry Academies (hereafter the academies) should develop and deploy education and training content to upskill and reskill workers required for key net- zero technology value chains, such as solar photovoltaic and solar thermal technologies, renewable hydrogen technologies and raw materials. The scope and number of the academies should be determined by the Commission, the Member States and the social partners in the framework of the Net Zero Platform on the basis of existing and objective studies in line with the prinicple of technological neutrality as well as based on a mapping exercise of current and forecasted needs in net-zero industries. Such a mapping exercise should provide information about current and upcoming labour shortages in key net-zero industries across the Union as well as an overview of how training opportunities are provided in such industries so as to enable an effective and affordable access to training for those who need it the most. Additionally, following the mapping exercise, the Commission should commit to issue a call for projects as soon as a certain threshold is reached in terms of labour shortage in a strategic sector. A first mapping exercise should already take place in 2024. Based on that mapping exercise, the Commission should also determine the number and scope of the academies that are likely to be created in order to ensure that funding is available to all of them. The academies should benefit from Union funding. A strong governance is needed to make the Academies operational as fast as possible to ensure the skilling of qualified workers. The Commission should have the lead to set up a call for projects to create academies, following consultation of the Net Zero Platform. This should be without prejudice to the determining role that social partners and universities can also play in the creation of such academies, as it was the case in the Battery Alliance. One of the aims of the academies will be to reindustrialise the Union and secure its own production in sensitive and strategic technologies . The academies would participate in the Union’s open strategic autonomy and would contribute to fulfilling the demands towards more EU demand for made-in-EU technologies with high social and climate standards. The academies should already be established by the end of 2024 and should aim to achieve geographical balance between its concerned actors, and respect linguistic diversity. They should start providing and disseminating initial learning content in 2025. The academies would aim to enable the training and education of 100.000 learners each, within three years of their establishment, to contribute to the availability of skills required for the net-zero technologies, including in small and medium-sized enterprises and would contribute to reduce the disparities among Member States. That content should be developed and deployed with education and training providers in Member States, relevant Member States authorities, private sector and industry representatives including from the SMEs and companies involved as well as social partners. Such content should take into account already existing learning programmes developed in the framework of the local Pact for Skills and the centres of professional excellence and should target all levels of education and all workers, including apprenticees, along the value chain in the sectors concerned. Education and training providers, industry and other actors involved in up- and reskilling in the Member States, such as Public Employment Services, should deliver the content produced by the academies. Member States should also use the learning content developed by the academies in other existing instruments such as in the reinforced Youth Guarantee whose one of its objectives is to provide education and training to NEETs, and to build up on existing mentoring programmes. To ensure skills transparency and portability the mobility of workers, and suppport the Member States in this effort, the European Net-Zero Industry Academies will develop and deploy credentials, including micro-credentials, covering learning achievements. They should be issued in the format of European credentials for learning and could be integrated in EUROPASS and, where relevant, included in National Qualifications Frameworks. Member States are encouraged to support the continuous reskilling and upskilling offered via the academies and the relevant education and training providers in their territories through national programmes and Union funding, including from the European Social Fund Plus, the reinforced Youth Guarantee, the Recovery and Resilience Facility, InvestEU the European Regional Development Fund, the Just Transition Mechanism, the Modernisation Fund and the Technical Support Instrument. The Net-Zero Europe Platform should assist in guiding the work of the Academies ensuring that the scope of the academies are in line with the conclusions of the mapping exercise and providing oversight. Where the Platform deals with skills related topics, Member States should ensure that the appointed national representative can act as a bridge between the relevant national ministries and competent authorities of the Member States as well as the national social partners and industry representatives. The Platform should collect information on the progress made by the different academies and produce by the end of 2026 an overview report on the deployment of the learning programmes, the number of targeted learners within each academy and across different levels of qualification.

(39) As indicated in the Communication on the Green Deal Industrial Plan for the Net-Zero Age, published on 1 February 2023, the Union’s industry’s market shares are under strong pressure, due to subsidies in third countries which undermine a level playing field. This translates in a need for a rapid and ambitious reaction from the Union in modernising its legal framework, including full implementation and effective use of its Foreign Subsidies Instrument regulation.
