Oil
Oil sources for the European Union with tendency forecast.
Oil is one of the largest primary energy sources in Europe. It is mostly used for transportation and heating. Oil production is relatively low in Europe, with significant production only in the North Sea. Most of Europe's oil comes from imports (about 90% for the EU28).
Electricity
Renewable energy
The twelve newer EU Member States in Central and Eastern Europe plan to increase wind power capacity from the 6.4 gigawatts installed at the end of 2012 to 16 gigawatts by 2020.[3][4]
If renewable electricity production in the EU continued to grow at the same rate as it did from 2005 to 2010, it would account for 36.4% of electricity in 2020 and 51.6% in 2030, following:[5][6]
| Renewable energy as a percentage of total electricity | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2005 | 2006 | 2007 | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 2020 | 2030 |
| 13.6 | 14.2 | 15.1 | 16.4 | 18.2 | 21.2 | 36.4 | 51.6 |
In March 2022, the European Commission released its comprehensive "REPowerEU" plan to promote renewable energy in Europe.[7][8]
