The European Commission has launched today a consultation inviting all interested stakeholders to comment on its draft state aid framework accompanying the Clean Industrial Deal (‘CISAF'). The consultation is open until 25 April 2025.

On 26 February 2025, the Commission published the Communication on the Clean Industrial Deal: A joint road map for competitiveness and decarbonization, announcing the adoption of a new State aid Framework in the second quarter of 2025. Today, the Commission is launching a consultation on the draft text of CISAF. The adoption is planned for June 2025.

The CISAF will accompany the Clean Industrial Deal by setting out how member states can design State aid measures to support its objectives, building on the experience with the Temporary Crisis and Transition Framework (‘TCTF') transition provisions (i.e. sections 2.5, 2.6 and 2.8 TCTF). Once adopted, the CISAF will replace the TCTF and is intended to be in force until 31 December 2030, offering a longer planning horizon for member states, and investment predictability and certainty for businesses. It will ease certain standard requirements, like the mandatory bidding process to allocate state aid, which will speed up the use of the schemes once they are set up by member states.

Executive Vice-President Teresa Ribera in charge of competition policy, said: "Today's proposal aims to ensure that member states can provide support – where needed – to accompany the ambitions of the Clean Industrial Deal without causing undue distortions of competition in the Single Market. We encourage all interested stakeholders to share their views." 

A press release is available online.
