Fatih Birol says Europe made a major mistake by delaying the shift to electricity
The head of the International Energy Agency, Fatih Birol, warned that Europe made a serious mistake by not accelerating the transition to electricity following the 2022 energy crisis, as dependence on imported fossil fuels remains and weakens its competitiveness and energy independence. He called for speeding up electrification in the economic sector, noting that the rate of reliance on electricity is no more than 23% of energy consumption, a level similar to that of the United States, despite Europe's heavy reliance on oil and gas imports. The European Union aims to increase this rate to 32% by 2030, with a plan to promote reliance on electricity and facilitate the transition of households and businesses to cleaner sources.
