The CRMA technology context for key technologies instrumental to green and digital transitions, defence, and aerospace applications.
Strategic technologies explain why certain raw materials receive strategic attention under the CRMA. The term is not a list of individual products and not a standalone product-passport requirement. It frames the technology areas that depend on secure and sustainable supplies of strategic raw materials, including battery, electrification, renewable-energy, digital, defence, and aerospace contexts.
This page is anchored in CRMA Article 2, point 30. It frames key technology areas for green, digital, defence, and aerospace transitions, and links to selected CRMA end-use equipment and permanent-magnet component terms without turning those pages into product-compliance claims.

Reference: Article 2, point 30
Companies use this term when explaining why a material, component, or product family is strategically relevant in EU critical-materials policy. It can support material prioritization and evidence planning, but the actual product, material, and supplier records still need their own identifiers and source links.
The value of this term is in linking material evidence to industrial context. Minespider treats strategic technologies as the reason a material record may matter for resilience planning, battery supply chains, and customer evidence requests, while keeping the technology category separate from the material list and the product passport record.
