Beyond excited about EP's strong call for a geothermal strategy!
⬇️Innargi’s @ahaugstrup points out how #geothermal #districtheating contributes to EU climate targets and strategic autonomy. Clean heating needs to be high on the next EU agenda!

The EP’s ITRE Committee adopted its report on #geothermal energy today. An important step to #decarbonise how we heat our homes with clean district heating!

[Morten Helveg @mortenhelveg]

Bum! Energiudvalget har lige vedtaget rapporten om geotermisk energi. Grøn fjernvarme efter dansk forbillede er på vej ud i hele #Europa 💚🇩🇰 #eudk #dkpol #dkenergi #dkgreen #dkbiz

Always a pleasure to discuss with @Novelis top management the relevance and direction of travel of the EU’s #CircularEconomy

Incredible source of renewable energy we all walk on #geothermal.

Its time to properly harness its potential. For Europe's prosperity. For the Planet. For our future.

Op-ed alert! 📬Following the EP's ENVI Committee on the #NetZeroIndustryAct, we argue in @EURACTIV why industrial carbon capture and storage (CCS) should be prioritised to truly “unavoidable” emissions: https://t.co/EOOKCfazzu

With 58% of EU citizens saying that the EU's transition to a green economy should be sped up (July 2023 Eurobarometer), we make a plea in @EURACTIV why the EU should set a #ClimateNeutrality target for 2040.

@BrabantseBranie @BasEickhout @MChahim @Leondegraaf7 @mkvaalst Mooi artikel die het belang van een klimaatneutraal Europa rond 2040 voor ons en toekomstige generaties weergeeft. Dank Mathijs en FD voor het leuke gesprek! #2040ClimateNeutrality #EUETS #EUGreenDeal #Fitfor55

5. You will find more details in our 5-page vision paper. Of course, a target is not realistic without a credible pathway. We therefore also give our vision on what should be achieved under the key EU policies that we focus on in our six practices:

[#SustainablePublicAffairs @EUSustainable]

What we achieve in life, echoes in eternity! Yesterday we submitted our vision to the EU's #2040ClimateTarget consultation (link below). A 🧵 we think the EU should strive to reach #ClimateNeutrality/#NetZero GHG emissions by 2040: (1/5)

https://t.co/hhMoZ3DfZM #ParisAgreement

[#SustainablePublicAffairs @EUSustainable]

4. The current EU energy and climate policy framework already foresees that almost half of EU emissions, covered by the EU Emissions Trading System (#EUETS), reaches #ClimateNeutrality by around 2040. So we are not starting from scratch (4/5) #Fitfor55

[Ecocem Global @Ecocem]

The Net-Zero Industry Act (#NZIA) should help achieve the EU’s #FitFor55 targets and accelerate emission reductions – so it’s disappointing to see the proposed report by the European Parliament’s ITRE Rapporteur remove any reference to 2030. This is bad for the #EUGreenDeal (1/4)
