The vision of the European power sector is to enable and sustain:
- A vibrant competitive European economy, reliably powered by clean, carbon-neutral energy
- A smart, energy efficient and truly sustainable society for all citizens of Europe
We are committed to lead a cost-effective energy transition by:
investing in clean power generation and transition-enabling solutions, to reduce emissions and actively pursue efforts to become carbon-
neutral well before mid-century, taking into account different starting points and commercial availability of key transition technologies;
transforming the energy system to make it more responsive, resilient and efficient. This includes increased use of renewable energy,
digitalisation, demand side response and reinforcement of grids so they can function as platforms and enablers for customers, cities and
communities;
accelerating the energy transition in other economic sectors by offering competitive electricity as a transformation tool for transport,
heating and industry;

carbon society;

industry to lead this transition.
