2️⃣🎉 Two years of #REPowerEU - “REPowerEU was a milestone in European energy policy. The EU could have put the #GreenDeal on hold. But they did the opposite. REPowerEU has been a kick-start for the transition to local, clean and cheap electricity”, said our CEO Giles Dickson.

➡️The cheapest, fastest & safest way to reduce reliance on Russian fossil fuels is to accelerate the deployment of #renewables .

🇪🇺 Europe will fulfil our #REPowerEU challenges, not just by diversifying one gas supplier to many others, but by boosting home-grown #renewableenergy .

🏭⚡️ #REPowerEU and its acceleration of renewables build-out were crucial to maintaining the #competitiveness of Europe's #industry and to ensuring affordable #electricity prices for European #households .

Today is the second anniversary of #REPowerEU , the EU’s #energy response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Last year the EU as a whole built 13 GW of new #onshorewind capacity. 🇩🇪 Germany is now planning to auction 15 GW of new onshore wind in 2024 alone.

How is this possible? How is Germany progressing?

#OffshoreWind #EnergyTransition

The European wind industry is starting 2024 with new optimism, writes WindEurope. An uptick in permitting, new investments and auction volumes has brought the EU’s 2030 wind energy target within reach. But there is absolutely no room for complacency.

⚡️Starting the week with electricity grids on our mind & agenda.

➡️At the end of 2023, European Commission came out with an EU Action Plan on Grids. Today, we followed it up with a High-Level Roundtable, led by ENTSO-E.

✅Our focus - supply chains, regulatory framework & financing.

🔼 Things are up for #windenergy in Europe. This is also true for #investments in 2023. They more than doubled in 2023 compared to 2022, driven by record #financing of offshore wind projects.
