A trio of challenges facing Europe are having an ongoing impact on its energy sector: the energy crisis, which saw prices grow sharply, was brought into greater focus following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, while the vital climate crisis bears a constant pressure on all decisions.In this week’s episode, David is joined by Leonhard Birnbaum, president of the trade association Eurelectric—and CEO of E.ON—to discuss how Europe has reacted to the crises and its next steps towards 2030 and 2050 climate targets.Enjoy the show.If you have any thoughts or questions about anything that has been discussed in this week’s episode, you can reach us at our social media accounts:Leonhard Birnbaum: https://twitter.com/EON_SE_enDavid Weston: https://twitter.com/DaveW_FORESIGHT@EnergyEnablers: https://twitter.com/EnergyEnablersFORESIGHT Climate & Energy: https://twitter.com/FORESIGHTdkListen and subscribe to Energy Enablers wherever you get podcasts.
