description | The transition to renewable energy is pivotal for the European Union (EU) in its efforts
to combat climate change and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. This article examines the
challenges and opportunities associated with the EU's target of achieving at least 42.5%
renewable energy consumption by 2030. Utilizing a comparative analysis of EU member states,
it is assessed the renewable energy shares, achievements, and gaps. The methodology employed
in this research is a mixed-method approach combining quantitative and qualitative analyses to
evaluate the progress of renewable energy adoption in the EU and the barriers to achieving the
2030 targets. The analysis highlights the role of targeted policy interventions and increased
investment in accelerating renewable energy deployment. Ultimately, this study underscores the
need for cohesive strategies to enhance the resilience and sustainability of the EU’s energy
system as it strives to meet its climate objectives |
