Great discussions with Eurelectric on the importance of expanding & digitalising 🇪🇺 electricity grids. I find your Grids for Speed study very timely, with interesting insights that are aligned with our analysis. We remain very committed to deliver the recent EU #GridsActionPlan .

MEPs consent to the EU withdrawing from the Energy Charter Treaty europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-…

Important exchange with the #EuropeanParliament on the #EnergyCharterTreaty .

For the Union, remaining in this unreformed Treaty is not an option, as it is incompatible with our energy & climate goals & opens up multiple risks.
Good to see that the #EP agrees with our assessment.

Launching the Energy Efficiency Financing Coalition!

There has never been such🌍momentum to make progress on #energyefficiency . But without proper financing, we risk jeopardising our 2030 & 2050 targets.

That’s why #EEEFinCoalitionlaunch is essential.
