“Sustained strong growth in renewable energy” contributes to fall in emissions 
Greenhouse gas emissions decreased very sharply in 2009, by 7.1 % in the EU-27 and 6.9 % in the EU-15.

This decrease was largely the result of the economic recession of 2009, but also sustained strong growth in renewable energy. | REM blogs
