What it does not test. This does not establish that the 1 gigawatt target is funded or contracted, or that any named partner committed a specific sum.

How this item counts. No movement: no answer to who owns, who operates, whose law governs or who made the parts changes. Weight 0. EU endpoints live now; 1GW-by-2030 target unfunded, no ownership/law change (Mistral already EU). European Sovereignty Index
