Germany Wants 45% Renewable Energy by 2030
Germany just made an ambitious announcement that it aims to have 45% of all its energy come from renewable sources. They are looking at a variety of options, including solar, wind and geo-thermal energy in order to meet this goal.
The EU as a whole agreed to a goal of 20% renewable energy sources by 2020. Germany is definitely hauling out the big guns by declaring it will top this!
Germany also hopes that this move will increase employment and help the German economy. There are now over 214,000 jobs in the renewable energy sector and thousands more are expected to come up as Germany looks to accomplish this green goal.
