For the past two decades, a
significant shift in the European electricity production mix has
been underway. Coal use in Europe has decreased from 31% to 16%,
while natural gas use has increased significantly from 12% to
20%. This is the conclusion of the fifth Med & Italian Energy
Report, produced by the Srm, a research institute affiliated
with the Intesa Sanpaolo group, and the Esl@Energy Centre of the
Polytechnic of Turin. Renewable energies dominate, rising from
15% to 38%, according to the report's data. By 2027, the rate of
renewable energy expansion is expected to more than double.
