Europe is expanding renewable electricity at a slow but steady pace. If we want to become independent of fossil fuels and nuclear power, these new electricity sources must be reliable, also in the face of weather extremes and a changing climate.

In the last decade, governments, the European Commission and numerous research institutes have produced one scenario for the electricity system after the other. These scenarios inform us of the future electricity mix and, importantly, of its costs, as a base for national and European energy policies.
