Structured register of government actions in the geoeconomic space — export controls, tariffs, sanctions, FDI screening, subsidies, industrial-policy laws — cross-referenced into the country, minerals, and ETF surface. Charter: docs/IPTM_CHARTER.md.
Severity 1-5 is the qualitative impact rating (1=minor, 5=structural). The bilateral-trade-grounded quant scorer is the next IPTM milestone. RBI (Register Breadth Index) is a complementary structural-breadth indicator from scripts/py/iptm/breadth.py; divergence between RBI and severity is itself informative (high-sev / low-RBI = strategic chokepoint; low-sev / high-RBI = broad but shallow). Every action has at least one primary source URL. Verify-or-don't-file. See also themes, timeline, graph, sankey, map, country exposure, sector exposure, material exposure (+ graph), weekly briefs, portfolio scan, escalation monitor, trans-shipment hubs. Internal triage tools (RSS-poller candidate feed, source-feed health) live under /admin/candidates + /admin/sources. Subscribe via Atom feed (accepts ?country=CN, ?material=lithium, ?issuer=BIS, ?type=export_control, ?etf=SOXX, ?company=NVDA, ?minSeverity=4, ?year=2026, ?q=…) or pull /api/iptm/actions.
The European Commission approved a EUR 200 million (USD ~230.3 million) Innovation Fund grant for Automotive Cells Company (ACC) on 3 November 2025, funding the "ACCEPT" (Automotive Cells Company European Production Take-off) project — five new Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) lithium-ion battery production lines with a combined 15.7 GWh annual capacity across ACC's two gigafactories at Billy-Berclau-Douvrin, France. ACCEPT was one of five EV battery-cell projects (alongside Verkor/AGATHE, LG Energy Solution/46inEU, Novo Energy/NOVO One, and Leclanché/WGF2G) confirmed under the EU Innovation Fund's 2024 Battery call, together worth EUR 643 million; grant agreements with CINEA were formally signed on 10 November 2025. At EUR 200 million, ACCEPT is the single largest award in the five-project cohort.
The European Commission's Innovation Fund, administered by CINEA, awarded French battery-cell maker Verkor a EUR 19.5 million grant under the Innovation Fund 2024 Battery call for its "AGATHE" (Advanced Gigafactory Aiming at Tempering greenhouse gases Emissions) project, which aims to double NMC cell production capacity at Verkor's Dunkirk gigafactory from 8 to 16 GWh using AI-driven manufacturing and an on-site pre-recycling facility targeting >95% scrap recovery. The award was one of five EV battery-cell projects (Verkor/AGATHE, Automotive Cells Company/ACCEPT, Novo Energy/NOVO One, Leclanché/WGF2G, LG Energy Solution/46inEU) confirmed under the same call, together worth EUR 643 million; grant agreements with CINEA were formally signed on 10 November 2025. Verkor-linked entities also received separate grants in the same call round: Giga Verkor Immo (EUR 38.1 million) and Rekovr (EUR 18.6 million), covering the factory real-estate and recycling arms respectively.
The European Commission approved a EUR 201.4 million (USD ~231.9 million) Innovation Fund grant for Novo Energy Production AB, funding the "NOVO One" gigafactory project in Gothenburg, Sweden, under the Innovation Fund 2024 Battery call (IF24 Battery). CINEA lists NOVO One's status as "Grant signed," one of five EV battery-cell projects (alongside ACCEPT and AGATHE in France, WGF2G in Germany, and 46inEU in Poland) confirmed under the same call, together worth EUR 643 million, with grant agreements formally signed on 10 November 2025. Novo Energy — originally a 50/50 joint venture between Volvo Cars and Northvolt targeting up to 50 GWh/year of NMC cell capacity — came under Volvo's full ownership in 2025 after Northvolt's bankruptcy left the venture without its battery-technology partner.
