Abstract

The European Union is actively promoting Europe’s transition to a low-carbon society and updating its rules to facilitate the necessary private and public investment in the transition to clean energy. This should benefit the planet, but also the economy and consumers. The transition to a low-carbon economy aims to create a sustainable energy sector that fosters growth, innovation and jobs while improving the quality of life, increasing choice, strengthening consumer rights and, ultimately, saving household costs. A simplified and harmonized EU approach ensures a truly huge impact in the fight against climate change. Promoting renewable energy sources and improving energy efficiency are keys to reducing Europe’s greenhouse gas emissions and meeting its obligations under the Paris Agreement. In addition to ensuring the effective functioning of the EU energy market, energy policy promotes the interconnection of energy networks and energy efficiency. The energy market is facing new challenges in which the share of electricity produced from renewable sources will increase from 25% to 50% in 2030.
