“If biofuel or other forms of energy achieve the same goal, let’s use them“. The message launched by Adolfo Urso at the European level is clear: we must not fossilize only and exclusively on electric to adopt the much vaunted mobility transition. Our Minister of Enterprise and Made in Italy has illustrated the Italian proposal to businesses and unions, will later be made officially in Brussels at the Competitiveness Council.
Urso and the car market crisis
The core of this proposal, Ansa reports, is move up from the end of 2026 to the beginning of next year the review clause provided for in the regulation on light vehicles. “There is a clear crisis underway in the EU with the collapse of the electricity market and the difficulties encountered by multinational car companies that forces us to make decisions”commented Urso. In addition to this request for an advance, there is also the request for more European resources to finance the transition and introduce the principle of technological neutrality which would allow the life of internal combustion engines to be extended.
The reaction of the unions
Contrasting reactions from the unions regarding the confrontation. The general secretary of Uil, Pierpaolo Bomberssaid: “If I am not mistaken, Stellantis, Renault, Volkswagen and BMW have stated that they are not willing to go back on the EU Commission’s decision”. And he relaunched about Stellantis: “We are once again requesting a table at Palazzo Chigi, because the priority is the most important people 200,000 workers on redundancy“.
