Background
One of the main causes of global warming is from the use of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and natural gas, when they are burnt they release carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. To combat this, countries have increased their deployment of renewable energy resources such as solar, water, wind, biomass and geothermal.
This data analysis will focus on Europe’s progress in the deployment of renewable energy versus the world and how its countries can meet the 2030 renewable energy targets to lower the dependence on fossil fuels and reduce carbon emissions. The EU revised its 2030 renewable energy targets in December 2018 to 32% with a review to revise this target between now and 2023.
