The truth is simple manufacturing went to China because it was the cheapest, now after decades they also have expertise.
Do you know what happens if you need to split your supply chain across multiple countries and companies? Your cost of goods increases, you can no longer streamline transport or negotiate a better price as you are buying less.
You will still go to china where you can save the most and then you just need to find the second cheapeste country which most likely will not be in europe.
I see the good intention but I dont think this is really the best way to execute. If EU would be willing to commit to signing contracts with companies in Europe that span over multiple years but with conditions like we buy x per year but it needs to be manufactured under certain conditions, something like this could work better.
can we produce fpp2 now?
Very good news,
I’ve read the EU Industrial Accelerator act (the bigger framework), it seems like a very smart way to incentivize European industry growth, create job’s opportunities, transfer tech-knowledge and know-hows without scaring off potential foreign investors or losing global trust like other countries’ approaches
I love how bureaucrats think like those women that believe in horoscope and manifestation.
They think that just because they write it on paper, it will manifest and materialize into reality:))
Without cheap energy there’s no competing with anyone.
We need to start fracking asap.
Not just the supply chains. The most important thing is reducing the hundred billions of trade deficits that have been killing lots of local industries.
Very nice, very needed.
> The proposed policy would target critical industries such as chemicals and industrial machinery. Companies would reportedly be required to source components from at least three different suppliers, with limits on how much can come from a single supplier or country.
I wonder how this will be handled in reality though. I could foresee situations where prices would go WAY up because of this, or some products might barely be able to be made at all?
But yes, this is very much needed.
Easy to write policy and rule, but how to actually implement them is different story
