The new scientific <a href=\"http:\/\/energywatchgroup.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/EWG-LUT_Full-Study_Energy-Transition-Europe.pdf\">study<\/a>  shows that the transition to 100% renewable energy will be economically  competitive with today&rsquo;s conventional fossil fuel and nuclear energy  system, and lead greenhouse gas emissions to zero before 2050. The  study&rsquo;s financial case for an energy transition becomes even stronger  when taking into account significant projected job growth and the  indirect economic benefits for health, security, and the environment,  that were not factored into the study.<\/p>\n<p>Undertaken by LUT University and Energy Watch Group, the  first-of-its-kind scientific modeling study has simulated a full energy  transition in Europe across the power, heat, transport, and desalination  sectors by 2050. The study&rsquo;s publication came after approximately four  and a half years of data collection, and technical and financial  modeling under the research and analysis of 14 scientists.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This report confirms that a transition to 100% renewable energy  across all sectors is possible and not more expensive than today&rsquo;s  energy system,&rdquo; said Hans-Josef Fell, former German parliamentarian and  president of Energy Watch Group, during its COP24 press conference, &ldquo;It  demonstrates that Europe can switch to a zero-emission energy system.  Therefore, European leaders can and should do much more for climate  protection than what is currently on the table.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>Some of the study&rsquo;s key findings: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The transition will require mass electrification across all energy  sectors. Total power generation will exceed four to five times that of  2015, with electricity constituting for more than 85% of primary energy  demand in 2050. Simultaneously, fossil fuels and nuclear are phased out  completely across all sectors.<\/li>\n<li>Electricity generation in the 100% renewable energy system will  consist of the following mix of power sources: solar PV (62%), wind  (32%), hydropower (4%), bioenergy (2%) and geothermal energy (&lt;1%).<\/li>\n<li>Wind and solar make up 94% of total electricity supply by 2050, and  approximately 85% of the renewable energy supply will come from  decentralized local and regional generation.<\/li>\n<li>100% renewable energy is not more expensive: The levelised cost of  energy for a fully sustainable energy system in Europe remains stable,  ranging from 50-60 &euro;\/MWh through the transition.<\/li>\n<li>Europe&rsquo;s annual greenhouse gas emissions decline steadily through the transition, from approximately 4200 MtCO<sub>2<\/sub> in 2015 to zero by 2050 across all sectors.<\/li>\n<li>A 100% renewable power system will employ 3 to 3.5 million people.  The approximate 800,000 jobs in the European coal industry of 2015 will  be zeroed out by 2050, and will be overcompensated by more than  1.5-million new jobs in the renewable energy sector.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&ldquo;The results of the study showcase that the current goals set forth  under the Paris Agreement can and should be accelerated,&rdquo; said Dr.  Christian Breyer, professor for solar economy at Finland&rsquo;s LUT  University, &ldquo;The transition to 100% clean, renewable energy is very  realistic, right now, with the technology we have available today.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The study concludes with policy recommendations to promote a swift  uptake of renewable energy and zero-emission technology adoption.  Primary measures promoted in the report include support of sector  coupling, private investments, tax benefits, legal privileges, with a  simultaneous phase out of coal and fossil fuel subsides. By implementing  strong political frameworks, the report shows that a transition to 100%  renewable energy can be realised even earlier than 2050.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/energywatchgroup.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Key-findings_100-renewable-Transition-across-energy-sectors-Europe.pdf\">Click here<\/a> for&nbsp;key findings<\/li>\n<li>The full study is <a href=\"http:\/\/energywatchgroup.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/EWG-LUT_Full-Study_Energy-Transition-Europe.pdf\">available here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>A presentation summarising the study results is <a href=\"http:\/\/energywatchgroup.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/100-percent-.-COP-Press-Conference.pdf\">available here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>About the Study <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Simulation of the energy transition in Europe is part of the study  &ldquo;Global Energy System based on 100% Renewable Energy&rdquo;, co-funded by the  German Federal Environmental Foundation (DBU) and the Stiftung Mercator.  State-of-the-art modeling, developed by LUT University, computes a  cost-optimal mix of technologies based on locally available renewable  energy sources for the world structured in 145 regions and determines a  most cost-effective energy transition pathway for energy supply on an  hourly resolution for an entire reference year. The global energy  transition scenario is carried out in 5-year time periods from 2015  until 2050. The results are aggregated into nine major regions of the  world: Europe, Eurasia, MENA, Sub-Saharan Africa, SAARC, Northeast Asia,  Southeast Asia, North America and South America.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"green\">Source<\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/energywatchgroup.org\/new-study-100-renewable-energy-across-europe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ENERGYWATCHGROUP 2018<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"shariff shariff-align-flex-start shariff-widget-align-flex-start\"><div class=\"ShariffHeadline\">Diese Meldung teilen<\/div><ul class=\"shariff-buttons theme-round orientation-horizontal buttonsize-medium\"><li class=\"shariff-button facebook shariff-nocustomcolor\" style=\"background-color:#4273c8;border-radius:1%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sonnenseite.com%2Fen%2Fenergy%2F100-renewable-energy-across-europe-is-more-cost-effective-than-the-current-energy-system%2F\" title=\"Bei Facebook teilen\" aria-label=\"Bei Facebook teilen\" role=\"button\" rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"shariff-link\" style=\";border-radius:1%;
