Description
The Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) published a Science for Policy report on proposed DPP content for iron and steel products under the ESPR framework. Although non-binding, it is an official technical basis intended to support future delegated-act development for iron/steel DPP requirements (e.g., content structure, access rights, granularity, governance concepts). Compliance teams in steel value chains can use it to anticipate likely future DPP data fields and system capabilities.
