Chairman's message

Marc Florette
Research and Innovation Vice President, GDF SUEZ  
Since the first two International Conferences held in 2004
(Brussels, Belgium) and in 2006 (Napa Valley, USA), the Spring 2007
European Energy Council has set very ambitious targets for the
European Union to be met by 2020:

• A commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 20% when
  compared to the 1990 levels;
• A binding target of 20% of total energy consumption being
  renewable energy (7% in 2007), resulting in 35%-45% of power
  generation coming from renewable according to the lastest European
  prospective scenarios;
• An urgent need to increase energy efficiency in the EU in order to
  reduce by 20% the EU’s energy consumption projected for 2020.
  With higher and higher fossil fuel prices, this political roadmap
  provide the context for Distributed Energy Resources (DER). Indeed,
  many of the renewable energy sources are distributed, including new
  energy efficiency solutions such as combined generation of heat and
  power.
