How can we supply clean, reliable, and affordable energy in 2030?
In 2014, the European Council agreed upon the new 2030 Framework for Climate and Energy. This includes EU-wide energy targets like: 40% cut in GHG emissions, 27% renewable energy generation, energy efficiency improvements of 27%, and the completion of the internal energy market. Five years later European governments are not yet on track to achieve these goals. Can we achieve these goals? Are they realistic at all?
As young leaders in energy and sustainability, we are drivers and initiators of the unfolding energy transition. The YES-Europe Network will formulate answers to the questions that our current politicians and energy leaders struggle with. Therefore, in the Annual Conference of 2019 we explore technologies, perspectives, and policies of Europe’s energy future. Specific attention will be awarded to renewable energy potential, energy security, and accessibility of future energy services.
