The main source of renewable energy in 2019 was biomass (57.4% of gross energy consumption). [2] In particular, wood is the leading source of renewable energy in Europe, far ahead of solar and wind. [3] In 2020, renewables provided 23.1% of gross energy consumption in heating and cooling.
There are abundant opportunities for energy companies with a footprint in oil and gas resources and the renewable energy space. Three such companies are BP, Royal Dutch Shell plc (RDS.A) and Eni ...
The European Energy Centre (EEC) Institute is an independent professional educational body for the renewable energy, energy efficiency and electric vehicles sectors. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The EEC along with the affiliated Centro Studi Galileo runs a biennial European Conference on renewable energy, heating and cooling applications.
Iceland School of Energy was founded with the goal of harnessing the expertise and knowledge gained in Iceland through the country’s transition from coal and oil to renewable energy. We believe that connecting academia and industry is extremely important in order to tackle the many challenges that follow increased energy demand and the issues ...

In 2020, the global renewable energy market was valued at $881.7 billion [2] and consumption grew 2.9 EJ. [3] China was the largest contributor to renewable growth, accounting an increment of 1.0 EJ in consumption, followed by the US, Japan, the United Kingdom, India, and Germany. In Europe, renewable consumption incremented 0.7 EJ. [3]
In 2010, the €2.6 billion European solar heating sectors consisted of small and medium-sized businesses, generated 17.3 terawatt-hours (TWh) of energy, employed 33,500 workers, and created one new job for every 80 kW of added capacity. [1] Solar energy, the fastest-growing energy source in the EU, saw an 82% cost reduction between 2010 and 2020.
The Energy and Environmental Engineering field seeks to conserve and maintain the natural environment by using efficient sources of energy. [1] Energy and environmental engineers are continually searching for solutions to emerging, environment-related issues such as erosion, water disposal, air and water pollution, land resources, human health, and environmental restoration.
