EU-Specific
EU framework defining which economic activities are environmentally sustainable for investment and reporting purposes.
Regulation (EU) 2020/852 “establishes the criteria for determining whether an economic activity qualifies as environmentally sustainable for the purposes of establishing the degree to which an investment is environmentally sustainable.” Article 9 sets six environmental objectives: climate change mitigation; climate change adaptation; the sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources; the transition to a circular economy; pollution prevention and control; and the protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems. The Taxonomy classifies activities, not companies or products.
Quoted from the act itself on EUR-Lex. How it applies to exporters, above, is this lexicon’s summary.
EU Taxonomy is a classification system determining which economic activities are environmentally sustainable. Directly affects Indian companies: (1) EU investors subject to Taxonomy must report what % of investments are Taxonomy-aligned — affecting FDI into Indian companies, (2) EU companies in supply chains must report Taxonomy-aligned revenues — Indian suppliers must provide relevant data, (3) Indian renewable energy companies seeking EU green financing must demonstrate Taxonomy alignment. Most relevant to: green energy, infrastructure, manufacturing, transport sectors.
