A more independent Europe means homegrown, affordable, and reliable energy.

⚡ So far: renewables and nuclear energy already make up over 70% of our electricity generation.

🔋 Next: we are accelerating grid connections and storage so no clean power goes to waste.

🔌 The future: we are launching a new electrification strategy this summer to make Europe more independent.

We are moving away from expensive fossil fuels and toward a system that works for our people and the planet.

When you're "accelerating grid connections and storage", ensure that you're boosting EU electrical components suppliers and EU battery cell and module manufacturers by the same token. Otherwise we only get into new dependencies. Especially the EU battery supply chain needs a strong subsidy boost if it should have a chance to be able to catch up with subsidized market leaders from China.
