WASHINGTON (Reuters) – European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said that she agreed with President Joe Biden during a meeting at the White House on Friday to have a dialogue concerning incentives to the clean technology industry.
Describing her meeting with Biden as “very good,” von der Leyen said they agreed to work on giving EU-sourced critical raw materials access to the U.S. market.
Von der Leyen said the European Union welcomed the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act because it provides a massive investment in the green energy transition.
