A new position paper from Eurelectric warns that Europe's network tariff reform must balance harmonisation with national flexibility, safeguard investment signals and avoid distorting wholesale markets as electrification accelerates.
Eurelectric’s Power Barometer 2026 finds that clean electricity softened another fossil-fuel shock for Europe, but storage build-out is still falling well short of the pace needed to keep the system stable to 2030.
Eurelectric’s Power Barometer 2026 finds that clean electricity cushioned Europe from a fresh fossil-fuel shock this year, yet storage build-out is still falling well short of the pace needed to keep the system stable through 2030.
Two analyses, two pressure points: Eurelectric calls for smarter network tariffs, while market expert Gerard Scheper warns that direct C&I battery sales leave installers handling integration, commissioning and service.
A new study by Eurelectric and EY estimates that fleet electrification could unlock cumulative operating cost savings of up to €246 billion by 2030.
A new Eurelectric-AFRY report finds that long-duration energy storage technologies are approaching commercial viability in several European markets, with each gigawatt installed potentially delivering €150–250 million in annual system-level savings while easing curtailment and grid congestion.
A new report from Eurelectric drawing on 61 companies and 30 projects sets out an integrated partnership model designed to turn fragmented industrial electrification decisions into coordinated, system-level delivery.
A €500 billion yearly shortfall in clean energy funding risks slowing electrification. The power sector body Eurelectric sets out a series of measures to improve regulatory stability, strengthen investor confidence and unlock private capital.
Eurelectric’s alliance with EPRI on artificial intelligence reflects efforts to align power sector innovation with the growing digitalisation and decarbonisation demands facing European grids.
Boosting electricity demand and flexibility is key to unlocking the benefits of the energy transition, says Eurelectric.
With Europe’s electricity system under mounting strain, the continent’s power industry is calling on the European Commission to take bold, coordinated action in its upcoming Grids Package.
Grids are one of the bottlenecks for more renewable power. A new report from Eurelectric highlights how existing technologies can optimise grids, reduce investment needs and accelerate integration.
Power grids are increasingly impacted by extreme weather events driven by climate change. Eurelectric has issued proposals to help distribution system operators (DSOs) better prepare for these challenges.
Electrification can help restore competitiveness, cut fossil fuel dependence and unlock economic benefits for European industry, according to a new study commissioned by Eurelectric.
Last Friday marked the three year anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Beyond its military, one of the country’s fiercest defenders has been its power sector. Restoring destroyed plants, preventing blackouts and moving equipment, all while investing in new renewable capacity: Ukraine’s power sector is a masterful example of resilience from which Europe can learn, says Eurelectric.
Electric vehicle owners in Europe could save between €450 and €2,900 annually by using both smart and bidirectional charging, according to a new study by Eurelectric and EY. Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology will play a key role in unlocking these savings.
This March marked the third month in a row that Europe broke a historic power generation record. According to Eurelectric, solar now accounts for over 10% of the continent’s electricity mix.
Industrial electrification in Europe is struggling under high upfront costs, long investment cycles, rising energy prices, unfair taxation, and fossil fuel subsidies that still exceed €55 billion a year. Eurelectric is calling for an Electrification Bank as part of the EU Clean Industrial Deal.
A new study commissioned by Eurelectric underlines the need for a new approach to energy security that also reduces commodities exposure and dependence on fuel imports, and boosts crisis resilience.
On Saturday (February 8) the Baltic states officially left the Russian-led integrated power system, joined during the Soviet rule under the BRELL agreement, to synchronise with the European power grid (UCTE). Eurelectric applauds this also as an important step towards implementing the energy transition in Europe.
Grid digitalisation can improve power system efficiency in Europe, but a untapped potential remains, according to a new study Wired for Tomorrow of Eurelectric. It shows what matters.
Three quarters of the electricity generated in the EU this year came from clean energy – shows Eurelectric’s Power Barometer 2024. While the power sector continues to lead on decarbonisation, Europe’s economy is not electrifying fast enough.
Europe’s distribution grids need to be urgently modernised to enable massive electrification of transport, heating and industry, integrate renewables and withstand more frequent extreme weather and cyber threats, Eurelectric demands.
The generation of clean electricity in Europe is setting records. In the first half of 2024, renewables made up more than 50% of all power generation in Europe while nuclear provided a stable share of 24% - according to latest figures from Eurelectric’s electricity data platform.
SolarPower Europe and Eurelectric welcome the re-relection of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen by the European Parliament. They appeal to rapidly accelerate energy flexibility and electrification.
