???ViewItemOverview_lblAbstractSection???
The European Commission has recommended that the European Union should cut
greenhouse gas emissions by 90 percent by 2040 compared to 1990. Modelling shows that
this target is feasible technically and is in line with social acceptability and global fairness
objectives. Achieving it will require massive expansion of renewable electricity generation,
drastic reductions in fossil-fuel use, energy efficiency measures and deep electrification of
end-use sectors.
