Energiewende: Studie: Europas Firmen für mehr Investitionen in Erneuerbare
Europas Abhängigkeit von Energie aus dem Ausland soll nach der Ansicht von Führungskräften sinken. Sieht die Bevölkerung das genauso?
Brussels. German business leaders and citizens from nine other EU countries support increased investments in renewable energy, according to a survey conducted for the Climate Opinion Research Exchange, an initiative of an international foundation based in Belgium. The study also found strong support for reducing Europe's dependence on energy imports.
Key priorities for both business leaders and the general public in the survey include lower energy costs, reduced reliance on energy imports, and enhanced security. Business leaders particularly view renewable energy as economically beneficial, stating that such investments strengthen competitiveness and security in Europe. Around 74% of German business leaders agreed with the statement that investing in renewables could mitigate energy price shocks.
Generally, the survey indicates a slightly higher level of approval for energy-related policies among business leaders compared to the general public. EU energy ministers are set to meet in Dublin on Monday and Tuesday to discuss energy security among the community of states.
