Europe is meeting an increasing share of its energy needs through renewable sources. Can renewables meet all our energy needs? How can we achieve policy targets?
Our assessments also show that the increased use of renewable electricity across the European Union has not only reduced pressures linked to climate change, but also to air and water pollution (particulate matter formation, eutrophication and acidification). Cross-border cooperation could further enhance progress.
On this Ask an Expert session, we asked our live viewers’ questions to EEA experts, Mihai Tomescu and Javier Esparrago, working on energy and the environment.
