Reply from Europe to USA
Called the European Chip Act, the initiative aims to help the bloc compete with the US and Asia on technology, maintaining control over a critical piece of technology behind electronic products and devices around the world. The EU Parliament and 27 member states agreed on the legislation on Tuesday. In the statement, it was stated that the new rules aim to increase the EU’s global market share in semiconductors from 10% to 20% by 2030.
What’s in the European Chip Law?
The Chip Act has three main purposes:
Building large-scale capacity and innovation.
To make the EU self-sufficient.
To prepare the EU for possible future supply chain crises.
The EU’s executive body, the European Commission, said in a statement that the EU Chip Law will invest 6.2 billion euros to promote the industrialization of innovative technologies. Within the scope of the law, serious incentives will be provided for the construction of new facilities. The EU announced the drafting of this law last year, and since then nearly 100 billion euros of public and private investment commitments have been drawn to the continent.
Why is it important?
Semiconductors and chips are essential parts of any electronic device. They are used in every field, every device, from smartphones to cars. The crisis experienced during the pandemic period in semiconductors and the East Asia-based supply chain behind them had serious effects around the world. This problem was behind the graphics cards, PS5 consoles and cars that could not be found.
