Europe Sets the Standard for the Globe
Recently the European Council has agreed that the European Union will increase the share of renewable energy to 20% by the year 2020. The EU has adopted this share as a binding overall target for its member states. This is good news for our industry, and governments around the world should feel encouraged to set up ambitious binding targets and effective implementation programmes as well.

The European Renewable Energy Roadmap
The year 2006 started with conflict between Russia and Ukraine about supplying gas to the latter. The new year 2007 started with a similar battle between Russia and Belarus about oil and Russia shut down the pipeline which transports oil to the rest of Europe. The dependency on fossil fuels from other countries and the problem of global warming has put renewable energy back on the top of the European political agenda. EU citizens largely favour renewable energies while only 20% are for nuclear energy, according to a new European Commission survey.- Category: Publishers Note
