• Abstract:
  Energy efficiency and renewables are central to the EU and Member State's energy and climate policies. Reducing CO2 emissions, curbing the energy demand and/or provide alternative carbon-free supplies. The EU energy policies have three main objectives: competitiveness, energy security, and environment protection. In this report, three scenarios are being examined that illustrate possible alternative pathways for the evolution of the EU energy system up to 2030: the "energy efficiency" case, the "high renewables" case, and the "combined high renewables and efficiency" case. The scenarios explore the consequences for all sectors of the energy economy and address the possible synergies and overlaps between policies on energy efficiency and renewables.
