Study: €2 Trillion Needed to Transform Europe to 100% Renewables by 2030
-
Transforming Europe's energy system to run solely on renewables by 2030 would require €2 trillion in investment over the next decade.
-
The majority of funds could come from private investors if the right incentives are in place, according to a new study.
-
Onshore wind, solar, hydrogen and geothermal would be the main renewable sources.
-
The transition would reduce Europe's vulnerability to geopolitical tensions and lower energy costs.
-
Hitting the target requires faster regulatory approval of projects and scaling up renewable capacity by 20% annually.
