15 February 2012 - The important role of renewable power sources in the move towards a post-carbon Europe
Until recently, the main point of discord in the climate debate surrounded the opposition of investing in fossil fuels as opposed to investing in renewable sources. Since the Fukushima accident in 2011, the discussion has shifted towards the merit of investing in nuclear against investing in renewables, with the potential side-effects of nuclear technologies overshadowing the potential externalities of carbon emissions in the public debate. However, given the present and projected future technology costs, is such a divide well-founded when considering long-term climate goals? According to the European Commission’s latest policy, the European Union is aiming at reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by 80% compared to its 1990 levels by 2050. Read the news
