Europe on track for decarbonised power in 2050
The Power Perspectives 2030 report launched yesterday concludes that Europe’s 2020 plans are on-track for decarbonised power in 2050 if fully implemented. The authors find that an ambitious renewable energy target for 2030 will be key, allowing a high-level of diverse renewables to deliver 2050 decarbonisation and economic benefits if backed by significant grid investment, demand side resources and flexible gas, but investments must start now. | Panorama Low-carbon financing tops $97 billion a year Unique visitor figures up 11%
