1995 to 20 10 years 12% and the Kyoto protocol promises to reduce greenhouse gases.
8% of gas emissions have been pointed out again. The Green Paper also pointed out that
At present, it seems unlikely that there will be any new growth in nuclear energy. This is due to the liberalization of the energy market and its competitive position relative to other markets.
Possible solutions to the problems of energy (such as natural gas), public acceptance and nuclear waste. Under the current political situation (some member countries decide to redistribute this sector), the contribution of nuclear energy may not change much between now and 2020.
The goal of the white paper is to increase the share of renewable energy from 6% in 1995 to 12% in 20 10, and the commitment of Kyoto Protocol to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 8% has been put forward more than once. The green paper also pointed out that it is unlikely that there will be any new growth in nuclear energy at present. This is due to the liberalization of energy market and competition with other energy sources (such as natural gas), public acceptance and the solution of nuclear waste problem. As well as the current political situation (some member countries decided to abandon this sector), the role of nuclear energy will probably not change much between now and 2020.
Transportation sector (increased by 50% before 20 10) and its
98% dependence on oil has created a further demand for renewable energy (such as biofuels).
This is particularly important because the EU has 76% dependence (EU15).
If business as usual, by 20 10, this proportion may rise to 94% (30 EU countries).
Be pursued.
With the increase of energy demand in transportation field (50% before 20 10), 98% dependence on oil in transportation field will generate further demand for renewable energy, such as biofuels. This is particularly important, because 76% of the EU (EU 15 countries) rely on oil imports, and if the business runs normally, it may rise to 94% (EU 30 countries) in 20 10.
Last but not least, the role of the EU in the world energy market.
It is an argument for promoting renewable energy. As the EU relies on imported energy,
Dependence on the supply and demand situation in the international market has to be taken
Take it into consideration. Therefore, due to the world population growth and the increasing demand of developing countries, it is expected to increase by about 65% in 20 years, from 9.3 billion tons of oil equivalent in 2000 to15.4 billion tons of oil equivalent in 2020, which will have a great impact on the international fossil fuel price. The international community must strive to promote renewable energy and energy efficiency to reduce this trend.
Last but not least, whether the EU's role in the world energy market can promote the development of sustainable energy remains to be discussed. As the EU relies on imported energy, it must consider its dependence on the international market supply and demand. Therefore, due to the growth of the world population and the increasing demand of developing countries, it is predicted that the growth rate will exceed 65% in the next 20 years, from 9.3 billion tons in 2000 to 154 tons in 2020, which will have a great impact on the international fossil fuel prices. International efforts to promote renewable energy and energy efficiency should reduce this trend.
