The Commission has proposed the Cloud and AI Development Act and the Chips Act 2.0

On 3 June 2026 the Commission presented the European Technological Sovereignty Package. It contains two legislative proposals, the Chips Act 2.0 and the Cloud and AI Development Act, together with an Open Source Strategy and a Strategic Roadmap for Digitalisation and AI in Energy.

The Cloud and AI Development Act aims to triple data centre capacity in Europe over the next five to seven years and to streamline the conditions for deploying sustainable data centres. It also introduces a single EU-wide framework for assessing cloud and AI sovereignty, while keeping most of the market open to like-minded partners. The Chips Act 2.0 is to strengthen the production and design of the most advanced chips for AI. Both proposals are now being examined by the European Parliament and the Council.
