Energy Policy

The importance of energy policy to Europe’s future is indisputable. Whether we avoid climate change and create a greener economy in Europe depends on our ability to switch over to renewable energy. This transition must start at the European level, and GEF is at the forefront of debate and research on how Europe can manage this transition to an energy system based on 100% renewable energy.  Below are articles about publications and events where GEF works with leading experts in the energy field to lead a discussion about how we can bring about a renewable energy future for Europe.
