Draft impact assessment on review Renewable Energy Directive

As part of the European Green Deal, and to achieve a climate-neutral Europe by 2050, the Commission will table a ‘Fit for 55’ package to reduce emissions by at least 55% by 2030. The second revision of the RED II will contribute to achieve climate neutrality. The 2009 RED envisaged a 20% share of renewables in final energy consumption by 2020, the 2018 RED I a 32% share and the draft RED II is looking for approximately a 40% share.
