Roadmap 2050 is an initiative by the European Climate Foundation to provide a practical, independent and objective analysis of pathways to achieve a low-carbon economy in Europe, in line with the energy security, environmental and economic goals of the European Union.
In 2050 is it technically possible and affordable to have an electric mix of 80% renewable energy, 10% fossil fuels with CCS and 10% nuclear. For this to happen, governments need to start cooperating now to create an European "super grid" reliable for high shares of renewable energy supply and to define ambitious targets to 2020 for greenhouse gas emissions reductions, so that the carbon price starts working as a stimulus for innovation and competitiveness.
