Comparative analysis of national energy strategies of 19 European countries in light of the green deal’s objectives

The European Green Deal is setting clear objectives for the transformation of the economy into a cleaner and at the same time competitive working model. The energy sector and especially the electricity sector faces serious challenges in order to comply with the objectives set by the policy. Aging po...
