Minesto has welcomed EU’s new strategy for a resilient Energy Union with a forward-looking climate change policy.
“An important and necessary step to speed up the process to reach a sustainable future,” said Minesto’s CEO, Anders Jansson .
The European Commission has published its strategy to reboot the EU’s energy policy. The report identifies ocean energy as one of the main renewable technologies that can play a key role to accelerate the transformation of Europe’s energy systems to reach a more sustainable future.
The strategy is welcomed by Minesto’s CEO Anders Jansson: “This is an important and necessary step to accelerate the process to reach a sustainable future.
“Therefore I certainly hope that the European Commission will continue its efforts to support ocean energy and pave the way for this fossil free and sustainable energy form and help to establish it as an industrial base within the EU.”
The strategy paper also states that EU has a commitment to be a hub and a world leader in renewable energy by enhancing research, demonstration and innovation (RD&I) programmes and benefit from the EU’s first mover advantage in renewables.
