This can reduce EU demand for Russian gas by two thirds before the end of the year.
2️⃣ Transformation
REPowerEU will reduce faster our dependence on fossil fuels by:
💨tripling wind capacities by 2030
🌞accelerating the rollout of rooftop solar PV systems
🔋innovating hydrogen-based solutions
📝enabling faster permitting for renewable energy projects
3️⃣ Independence
The sooner we diversify supply, accelerate our green transformation, and reduce our demand for energy, the earlier we can substitute Russian gas and increase Europe’s energy independence.
We want to phase out our dependency on Russian gas, oil and coal by 2027.

We simply cannot rely on a supplier who explicitly threatens us.
We will end our overdependence on Russian gas by diversifying gas supplies and reducing faster the use of fossil fuels in our homes, buildings, industry, and power systems.
Uncertainty on supply is rising pressure on energy prices in Europe.
To stop it and secure our gas supply, EU countries will be required to ensure that underground gas storage is filled up to at least 90% of its capacity by 1 October each year.
