“Potstam”: Europe needs $2 trillion to ditch fossil fuels

Europe could ditch fossil fuels and build a self-sustainable energy sector by 2040 by spending about 2 trillion euros ($2.1 trillion) on solar, wind and other renewables, a new study shows.
A study led by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research said annual investments worth 140 billion euros would be needed until 2030.
While most of this amount will go towards expanding offshore wind farms, solar, hydrogen and geothermal resources will serve as additional pillars of a strategy to help make Europe’s electricity needs exclusively from renewable energy sources by 2030.
According to a study seen by Reuters, it will take another decade to convert the entire energy system, including functions such as heating, currently provided by oil or gas, to renewable energy sources.
The study continued, “These numbers are large, but it is important to remember that estimates indicate that European countries have spent an additional 792 billion euros on the existing system alone to protect consumers from the consequences of the energy crisis caused by the Russian conflict in Ukraine.”
