The EU recently proposed a binding 27% by 2030 renewable energy targets.
The goal of the operation will be accompanied by a 40% greenhouse gas reduction target.
Prior to the confirmation of the target, Greenpeace energy policy specialist • Tara Connolly (Tara Connolly) in an interview, said: "27% renewable energy target is just routine operation."
Connolly believes that 40 percent of greenhouse gas emission reduction targets across the EU itself will lead to promote renewable energy sources accounted for about 27%, making the individual target redundant.
She said: "It will not only affect the 2020 renewable energy investment in 2020 will also affect the investor if the member states and they do not know in 2020 after the development of renewable energy, they will do anything.?"
European Commission 席乔斯 • • Manuel Barroso (Jose Manuel Barroso), said the new target will avoid fragmentation and distortion of the European market.
He said: "We do not recommend the establishment of binding national targets, because the lessons we gained from the experience is that it has the risk of splitting the European market this bottom-up approach will bring more flexibility to the Member States. . "
Britain and Poland have called for the establishment of renewable energy goals do not make them through carbon capture and storage and nuclear energy and reduce emissions.
Alliance composed of the United Kingdom and Central European countries could still hinder the introduction of binding targets for renewable energy.
• EU Energy Commissioner Gunther Ottinger (GüntherOettinger) said it would establish a review process to ensure that the European Union remain on track.
He said: "From the beginning of next year, we will conduct annual report shows that we achieve 27% of the way, so if we catch up, we can make the necessary adjustments Finally, we need more coordinated support system so that it can reach at least 27. %. "
