Great discussion to end my 1st day at #COP27 in 🇪🇺 pavilion on renewable #hydrogen trade & partnerships.

Cooperation is the🗝️word going forward.

The #EU is already moving & international commitments, collaborations & partnerships are taking place all over the🌍!

From wind to #solar☀️at #COP27

2022, the year of 🇷🇺 aggression against 🇺🇦, will be a record year for solar PV installations in 🇪🇺, with roughly 40 GW of new capacity.

We are reducing our exposure to price volatility & the weaponisation of energy exports one panel at a time!

The EU has ambitious plans for #windenergy, from the North Sea to the Mediterranean to the Atlantic.

At #COP27 , we discussed how to deliver our goals & what are the obstacles still in our way.

I see the #cleanenergytransition as a catalyst to help us through this #energy crisis, helping the most vulnerable & others alike.

Thank you, #CLGEurope & @UNFCCC for a great discussion on the energy transition at #Cop27

The heaviest burden of rising #energy prices is falling on most vulnerable.

The latest @IEA #WorldEnergyOutlook found that around 75 million people who recently gained access to #electricity would not be able to pay for it. An unacceptable fact we need to address.

#Energyefficiency is a central pillar of EU’s #energy & #climate policy & a key element of the #Fitfor55 initiative.

It is often underappreciated as a tool to cut emissions & tackle the crisis, so highlighting the opportunities energy efficiency brings at #COP27

I have arrived in 🇪🇬 & will be taking part of the #COP27 events this week.

First up, opening of the #EU🇪🇺 #EnergyDay with a great discussion on how to accelerate the green transition to get through the current energy crisis.

Europe needs to respond to the challenges as a team.

Reducing #methane & other GHG emissions from the fossil energy sector will help us strengthen our #energysecurity.

The #EU has already proposed legislation to reduce harmful methane emissions in #energy. I look forward to working with partners to step up our efforts together👇

The Commission is committed to deliver an effective mechanism to limit excessive #gas prices, in line with our proposal of 18 October & the #EUCO conclusions. We'll present next week the outline for a gas market correction mechanism & a legislative proposal swiftly afterwards.

RT @Energy4Europe: UNEP @MethaneData announced the Methane Alert and Response System (MARS) today at #COP27.

MARS benefits from #EUfunding and is a new satellite-based system to detect #MethaneEmissions and transparently engage governments and businesses to respond and #CutMethane.

Honoured to open the 15th European Nuclear Energy Forum in 🇨🇿

We need to mobilize all parts of our #energy system to stand strong against 🇷🇺’s deadly geopolitics.

The story of nuclear has changed in many ways over the past year, but the future looks bright, despite challenges.

I visited ÚJV Řež Nuclear Research Institute in 🇨🇿, important site of production of medical radioisotopes in 🇪🇺

Radiological & nuclear science provide a wide range of benefits to the #EU citizens in areas beyond the production of nuclear energy, in particular for human health.
