European projects: Expand the support for strategically important projects in the area of climate transformation while at the same time simplifying the funding process.

State aid rules: Make EU state aid rules more flexible with regard to national programmes to facilitate simple
and SME-friendly support for private investment in renewable energy sources and the decarbonisation of industry.

Good jobs: Strengthening of European initiatives in the field of education and training as well as providing
guidelines for policies that combine investment subsidies with good-work (good-pay) conditions.

Electricity prices: Reform the European electricitym arket to ensure competitive electricity prices in the EU.

Financing: Create additional funding opportunities so that all EU Member States can implement a modern industrial policy.

Trade: Conclude additional industrial trade agreements with North America and other regions; avoid "buy Europe" policies (local content rules) and other forms of protectionism; provide additional EU funding to countries in the Global South so they can develop their own version of modern industrial policy.

Climate-neutral investments: Speedy enactment of tax incentives for climate-neutral investments as laid down in the Coalition Agreement of the current German government ("super write-offs").

Good Jobs: Combine investment subsidies with good-work (good-pay) conditions – additional subsidies for companies that pay union wages; speedy implementation of the planned Federal Collective Bargaining Act (Bundestariftreuegesetz); increase subsidies for on-the-job training and apprenticeship programs.

Electricity prices: Support the European efforts to reform electricity markets and immediately introduce a program that ensures competitive electricity prices for industrial users.

Financing: The funding of measures to conduct modern industrial policy in Germany needs to be secured in line with the constitutionally enshrined debt brake (balanced-budget rule).
