EU renewable energy targets
§ climate and energy goals for 2020, known as the "20-20-20 " targets, set three key objectives for 2020:
§ EU ambitious § 20% reduction in EU greenhouse gas emissions
§ Raising the share of renewable resources to 20%
§ 20% improvement in the EU's energy efficiency. § NL target: 14 % of total energy consumption from renewable sources
by 2020
§ Current share renewables within total energy consumption NL 4%
