Article 4(3) of the European Climate Law states: 'With a view to achieving the climate-neutrality objective set out in Article 2(1) of this Regulation, a Union-wide climate target for 2040 shall be set'. Article 4(4) and 4(5) sets out aspects to consider in setting the 2040 target. In early 2024, the European Commission adopted a communication accompanied by an impact assessment (IA) regarding a 2040 target and the pathway to 2050 climate neutrality. Setting out pathway scenarios and an indicative 2030-2050 EU greenhouse gas (GHG) budget, it considers that a 2040 climate target depends on two dimensions (I): fairness and (II): feasibility. The legislative proposal was scheduled for first quarter 2025 but is delayed until June or July 2025. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

Key EU connectivity challenges include: (i) accelerating fibre network deployment by setting a decommissioning deadline for legacy technology (copper networks); (ii) balancing EU and national interests in allocating spectrum; (iii) ensuring cybersecurity for new generation mobile technologies (5G and 6G); (iv) controlling and protecting the submarine cable connection system; and (v) tackling the network cost contribution debate ('fair share'). The long-awaited digital networks act (DNA) may also aim at tackling these issues to improve the EU's digital connectivity ecosystem. The DNA is expected at the end of 2025, probably replacing the European Electronic Communication Code. The EECC Directive aims at stimulating investment in and take-up of very high capacity networks in the EU (e.g. fibre and 5G) and set new spectrum rules for mobile connectivity. As consistently late transposition has jeopardised its effects (resulting in fines for five Member States), it might be assumed that the DNA will take the form of a regulation.
