Letter from the Electrification Alliance on the next European Commission work programme
Formed in 2017, the Electrification Alliance brings together a variety of stakeholders calling for clean electricity to be recognised as the key energy carrier for an efficient and decarbonised European future. In doing so, the Alliance members are working towards enabling technologies to advance Europe’s competitiveness, economic growth, job creation, and the promotion of a sustainable society for European citizens.
In this regard, the new Commission should demonstrate ambitious climate and industrial leadership during its next term in order to deliver on the ambition of the Long Term Strategy. This letter lays out a series of measures to achieve a deep decarbonisation of the EU economy based on renewables-based electrification.
