Europe´s Auto Industry Installed 23,000 New Robots

FRANKFURT AM MAIN, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Investment in automating the car industry in Europe remains high. The total number of industrial robots installed reached 23,000 in 2024, which is the second-best result in five years. These are preliminary results presented by the International Federation of Robotics (IFR). Europe´s Auto Industry Installed 23,000 New Robots Share "The European automotive sector is the region's strongest customer industry for robotics," says Takayuki Ito, President of the International Federation of Robotics. 'Car makers are accounting for around a third of annual manufacturing installations in Europe. In terms of automation activity, the combined number of 23,000 European robot installations in the car sector was ahead of the 19,200 units installed in North America in 2024.' Automotive robot density At a global level, Europe´s car manufacturing is highly automated: Six European countries are among the top ten in the world's robot density ranking for the automotive industry in 2023: Switzerland is in first place, with a ratio of 3,876 robots to 10,000 factory workers. Slovenia is in third place (1,762 units), Germany in sixth (1,492 units), Austria in eighth (1,412 units), Finland in ninth (1,288 units), and the Benelux countries are in tenth place with 1,132 units. European Union is in lead Apart from Switzerland, all of these automation champions are EU member states. The EU27 countries' leading role is evident not only in the automotive industry, but across all sectors, accounting for around 85% of all regional installations in 2024. Germany, which belongs to the five major robot markets in the world, had a share of about 30% of the total installations in Europe. Italy followed with about 10% and Spain with about 6%. From 2019 to 2024, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of robots installed in the Europe was +3%.

A handful of European nations mostly filled the gap the US left for Ukraine's aid — at least in dollar terms

Europe has "largely" filled the gap for aid to Ukraine after the US stopped supplying new packages in January, according to a leading organization that tracks the donated assistance. The Kiel Institute for the World Economy found that in the first four months of 2025, the monthly average amount of all aid to Ukraine increased by 2.4 billion euros, or $2.7 billion, compared to monthly averages from the rest of the war. Since Russia invaded in February 2022, the West has provided Ukraine with $312 billion worth of aid. Most of that is split between military assistance, such as weapons and ammo, and humanitarian aid, like food and infrastructure support. The US, by far Ukraine's largest individual donor, previously supplied about half of the West's military aid to Kyiv and about a third of the non-military aid given to Ukraine. But it has ceased announcing new major packages since President Donald Trump returned to the White House in mid-January. He has tried to negotiate an end to the war with Moscow. "With US contributions stalled, the key question is whether Europe can fill the gap," the Kiel Institute wrote in its analysis published on Monday. "The latest data suggest that Europe has largely done so, at least in financial terms." A major spike came in March and April, when the continent allocated a total of 10.4 billion euros in military aid and 9.8 billion euros in humanitarian and financial aid, per the German think-tank. Kiel analysts found that the European surge was led by the UK, France, and the Nordics, which include Denmark, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, and Finland. From January to April, the UK spent 4.5 billion euros on Ukraine, partially supplemented by incomes from frozen Russian assets, while France spent 2.2 billion euros. Meanwhile, the Nordics boosted their aid allocation to a combined 5.8 billion euros over the same period. "As a result, Europe has, for the first time since June 2022, surpassed the US in total military aid, totaling 72 billion euros compared to 65 billion euros from the US," wrote Kiel analysts. European Union institutions, which help to distribute financial aid from their members to Ukraine, also allocated about 12.2 billion euros in non-military assistance during that period. By contrast, several of Europe's other biggest economies barely increased their contributions. Kiel analysts wrote that Spain has allocated 10 million euros for Ukraine so far this year, while Italy has earmarked 20 million euros. Allocations from Germany, one of Ukraine's most stalwart supporters, dropped about 70% to 650 million euros compared to the same period of 2024. Berlin signaled in the fall of last year that it would cut its 2025 budget for Ukraine by nearly half — from 7.5 billion euros to 4 billion euros — as lawmakers sought to curb loan-taking from the government. With Germany lacking funds to maintain its aid flow, lawmakers have debated taking from social spending and pensions to avoid accruing further government debt. Faced with the same looming funding issues, Europe has deliberated over unlocking about $218 billion in Russian assets frozen in its banks. But it's a controversial move, with fears that seizing the funds could undermine the continent's reputation with other big players such as India, China, and Saudi Arabia. The EU has instead pursued less aggressive initiatives, such as a $50 billion loan to Ukraine using Russian funds and paying Kyiv interest on the frozen assets. Europe has not, however, outlined a long-term plan to continue supporting Ukraine. "It remains to be seen whether this is a temporary spike or the beginning of a more lasting shift in Europe's role as the main supporter of Ukraine," said Christoph Trebesch, the head of Kiel's team tracking Ukraine support, in the think-tank's analysis.
