Brussels prepares post-2030 renewable overhaul as grids struggle to keep up
The European Commission’s renewable push comes as the EU co-legislators, the European Parliament and the Council, are working to tackle one of the biggest bottlenecks to new clean-power projects — the electrical grids.
The European Commission is preparing to overhaul the EU's renewable energy rulebook post-2030, shifting from less regulation to a greater focus on investment, grids, and storage, according to a draft impact assessment. This move comes as the existing renewable energy law is deemed insufficient to meet the EU's 2040 climate ambition of reducing net greenhouse gas emissions by 90% compared to 1990 levels.
The new EU proposal to revamp the bloc's renewable energy framework is due by the end of the year, aiming to align the post-2030 climate framework with all sectors contributing to the common goal of reaching climate neutrality by 2050.
