The new Policy Brief on the "European Climate Law" is published as part of the SUPEERA project, in the context of its documents identifying concrete Research and Innovation (R&I) challenges in the most recent EU policies. The Brief provides an analysis of the so-called "law of laws", setting up the goals for the EU to fight a changing climate in the near future. The goals of the Climate Law will require a massive effort from all of society's stakeholders, and energy R&I will play one of the main roles in the implementation of the law's provisions.

The policy brief explores the "Climate Law" through the lens of the energy R&I sector, guiding researchers through the main ways energy technology can help the EU achieve lower emissions, an environmental-friendly industrial sector and a better future for all its citizens.

Some of the key challenges identified are:

• Research at all TRLs in line with climate goal
• Develop necessary technology for efficient carbon capture, storage and removal processes
• Advancements in HPC, modelling and AI to speed up new energy system components
• Increase research on social aspects, including SSH topics in energy research
