EU Renewable Energy Directive

The EU Renewable Energy Directive is a set of rules established by the European Union to increase the use of clean, renewable energy sources like wind, solar, and biomass. Its goal is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels by setting binding targets for each member country to produce a certain percentage of their energy from renewable sources by a specific date. The directive also promotes sustainable practices, improves transparency, and encourages investments in renewable energy infrastructure across Europe.
