The source adds the following information "Under the Reference Case – i.e., assuming the continuation of existing and planned policies – IRENA
estimates that the EU-28 would reach a 24% renewable energy share by 2030. This is below the currently proposed 27% target and would represent a substantial deceleration in the rate of renewable energy deployment compared to the previous decade. The REmap analysis identified significant cost-effective renewable energy potential that could be realised by 2030 to reach the proposed 27% target and go beyond

Renewable energy consumption by source in the EU-28 2010-2030
The statistic shows the final renewable energy consumption by source in the EU-28 in 2010 and in 2030 under the reference case and REmap in petajoule. Under the REmap, the consumption of renewable electricity would double in comparison with the 2030 reference case.
