Rethinking the European Green Deal: Accelerating the Transformation Toward Energy Independence Based on 100% Renewable Energy
The European Green Deal is the lighthouse initiative of the European Commission – aiming to transform the European Union towards a sustainable, clean, resilient economy in line with the 1.5 °C limit of the Paris Climate Agreement. The Green Deal consists of a wide range of legislative, administrative and policy initiatives. Starting with a European Climate Law outlining the EU’s ambition to become climate neutral by 2050 the latest, a legislative package titled “Fit-for-55” (aiming at 55% GHG-Reduction by 2030) is under discussion and will be finalized in the course of 2022. Several strategies and regulations were presented in parallel. I’ll describe and analyze the proposals and assess suggested and already agreed amendments from the European Parliament and the European Council as well as from civil society organizations.
In a second step, I shall discuss how the Russian invasion of Ukraine changed and accelerated the discussions, objectives and timelines of the European Green Deal. In this context, I focus particularly on the EU Commission’s Communication “REPowerEU” which was presented in March 2022, outlining a broad package of measures and proposals to frontload and accelerate the transformation towards a sustainable and more and more resilient and energy independent energy system in Europe.
In the final part, I shall provide an outlook and recommendations for further improvement and acceleration of the energy transformation towards 100% renewable energy in all end-use sectors.
