Accelerating the green transition can lower energy prices in the long term according to EU Chief Scientific Advisors
Today, the European Commission’s Group of Chief Scientific Advisors (GCSA) published a statement in response to the substantial increase of energy prices in Europe in recent months. In their statement, the Advisors point out that accelerating the transition towards a low-carbon energy system is a solution that can lower energy prices in the long term.

Professor Nebojsa Nakicenovic, Deputy Chair of the Group of Chief Scientific Advisors and lead Advisor for the Statement:
"As high energy prices threaten millions of Europeans at risk of energy poverty, achieving a high share of affordable, sustainable and renewable energy is more important and urgent than ever. This must be done with a people-centric approach, not leaving anyone behind.”
