Energy

The importance of research and innovation in promoting energy efficiency and equitable treatment for consumers is widely recognized.

Energy plays a critical role in achieving climate neutrality by 2050, especially since over 75% of the EU's greenhouse gas emissions come from energy consumption. EU-funded research and innovation projects are essential in developing solutions and transforming systems.

For more information on the scientific research efforts to improve the efficiency of the renewable energy value chain and integrate sustainability and circularity, explore the latest articles on this topic from CORDIS.
