The Commission by environmental
campaigners forecast 3 trillion euros would generate by 2050 on their green
revolution campaign- to make EU energy almost totally carbon free.
The energy shift would already
create around half a million extra jobs by 2020, Crown
researchers from German aerospace center DLR, which also specializes in energy
and transport, found. It has legislated to ensure that 20 percent of the energy
mix is green by the said year, as part of a set of three main environmental
goals. But it has yet to achieve agreement on binding targets beyond 2020, even
though non-binding roadmaps have laid out the need for a virtually carbon-free
electricity mix by 2050.
Commissioned by Greenpeace and
the European Renewable Energy Council (EREC), the 2012 Energy evolution report
lays out risk avoidance towards almost carbon-free energy. They include curbing
energy demand through greater efficiency, increasing investment in wind and
solar power and phasing out subsidies for carbon-intensive energy, such as
coal.
To bring about the energy
transformation, it sees a need to invest about 99 billion euros between now and
2050 or else this will be added on the list of renewable energy scam, but it
says the financial gains are much greater. Renewable energy has no
fuel costs; the fuel cost savings in the energy evolution scenario reach a
total of 3, 010 billion euros up to 2050, or 75 billion per year.
Another benefit is job-creation,
one of their strides in fraud prevention. The Crown
report finds almost totally green energy would lead to half a million extra
jobs compared with business as usual, as renewable energy initially demands
more workers than carrying on with fossil fuel.
