European electricity reports are at risk of stopping fossil fuel outputs, according to a report

According to a new reportThe European Electricity Network does not follow the transition to renewable energies. Now that the European Union announced last week Road map to gradually eliminate the remaining Russian fossil fuel Before 2027, electrical networks will be necessary to replace them Green energy for national production.
Beyond Fossil Fuels, E3G, Ember, Energy Economy and Financial Analysis Institute analyzes 32 electrical transportation systems (TSO) from 28 countries. Many of them use outdated scenariosBased on the goals and hypothesis of the old government in the electricity market. This is outdated network planning Poor governance is Europe’s transfer brake to renewable energies.
It is urgent that governments Eliminate fattening this system “Planning so that network operators can connect renewable energy projects,” says Juliet Phillips, beyond the fossil fuel activists.
Philips adds that giving GRT already Its organizers delegate an climate that can guarantee Which makes investments and long -term decisions in the long term “to prepare the future” Our energy systems. “It is the only way to free ourselves from fossil fuel imports and reduce bills and emissions,” he says.
In what places in Europe are renewable energy projects?
More than 1700 GW (GW) from Renewable energy projects In 16 countries are waiting for the electricity network, More than three times the ability of the European Union To achieve its capacity and climatic goals by 2030.
UKWith 722 GB of wind and solar energy, It is the country that has the largest amount of renewable energy It was banned in these tails of communication. It was followed by Finland with 400 GW, Italy with 348 GB and Germany with 70 GB.
Only in seven countries, 7,200 million euros of renewable energy was wasted in 2024 because they were unable to absorb electrical networks. This data is limited due to what GRT can facilitate the authors of the report. Many do not record renewable or cost reduction.
Data available to give an idea of what is lost in some of the largest European economies. In Germany alone, 3300 million euros of wind energy were suppressed And solar energy. In Spain, it may reach 2.5 billion euros in 2024. In these places, Clean energy is lost While it was still compensating for those who created it, the additional cost of taxpayers often decreased.
Bossing fuel can become a self -prophecy
The report warns of this, If the planning is not updated Organizing the update of electrical networks, Europe exposes the risk of becoming a “twisted self -prophecy” In any fossil gas This seems necessary because network networks have never planned a system based on renewable energy sources.
Only five operators have been planned The indisputable network of 2035: EIRGRID (Ireland), Energinet (Denmark), Fingrid (Finland), National Network (UK) and LitGrid (Lithuania). This is though 13 countries have clean energy goals for the same period.
“European electricity does not update Villaslava Ivanova, E3G Research Director, says governments should send “clear political signals” to the network operators about He needs to achieve climatic goals Ivanova adds, to cancel the insurance of the economy without resistant and fossil fuel.
“Only with the political leadership, independent rule, and clear incentives, we can The networks include facilitatorsNot in the barriers, the future of clean and competitive energy in Europe. “
