The adopted text adds a recital on technological neutrality and extends the analysis of short-term markets to consider alternative designs. It also adds carbon capture, utilisation and storage as key for hard-to-abate sectors and low-carbon products. Support for clean technologies now includes carbon capture and storage and low-carbon hydrogen, and State aid must be technology neutral.
