Under the European Green Deal, the Commission has committed to stronger action on climate change and will assess how the EU’s greenhouse gas emissions could responsibly be reduced by at least 50% to 55% by 2030.

The review will: assess how far EU renewable energy rules (Directive 2018/2001/EU) can contribute to a higher EU climate ambition; and explore how to accelerate the transition to a more integrated energy system as outlined in the energy system integration & hydrogen strategies.

This roadmap is open for feedback for 7 weeks (closes 21 September 2020). Feedback will be taken into account for further development and fine tuning of the initiative.
