European preparatory conference in Berlin issues a strong statement for increasing the share of renewable energy
A target value for renewable energies of at least 20% of gross inland
energy consumption by 2020 for the EU is achievable. This is one of the key conclusions of the European Conference for Renewable Energy -
Intelligent Policy Options. Within the last two days, the conference
analysed the situation for renewable energies in Europe, and evaluated
the experiences made including the impact of the political measures
implemented to date at Community, national and local level, which aim at increasing the share of renewable energies. More than 650 participants from 45 countries gathered in Berlin.
The conference recommendations are acting as input for renewables 2004 to be held in Bonn in June 2004 on the invitation of the Federal German government. On behalf of the conveners, the Federal Development Minister Heidemarie Wieczorek-Zeul and Federal Environment Minister Juergen Trittin welcomed the recommendations as a clear signal for substantially increasing the proportion of renewable energies worldwide.
