Bnef: Is Europe's Energy Transition on Track?

The video discusses Europe's progress towards its 2030 climate goals, focusing on the need to double solar and wind capacity to meet targets. While solar installations are on track, wind energy faces challenges requiring policy intervention. Europe is projected to reach 85% of its energy target, highlighting a gap that needs addressing through increased installation rates and economic incentives.
