"Electrification is necessary; it’s our future and the way to guarantee a better world, and a better European Union." In September, while we were at the European Parliament for plenary week for our #electrification⚡️ lunch, MEP Elena Sancho Murillo, discussed the importance of moving electrification to the fast track, and delivering our net-zero future by 2050. Now that the Electrification Action Plan is included in European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's Mission Letter to the new Energy Commissioner-Designate Dan Jørgensen, we need the 🆕 Commission to publish it during its first 1️⃣ 0️⃣ 0️⃣ days❗ Find out more 👇 https://lnkd.in/gPT6vJ7n #100daysToElectrify #ElectrifyNow AVERE - The European Association for Electromobility European Heat Pump Association Eurelectric EuropeOn - The European Electrical Contractors Association International Copper Association Europe Renewables Grid Initiative smartEn Smart Energy Europe SolarPower Europe Transport & Environment (T&E) WindEurope

The Electrification Alliance advocates for an efficient and decarbonised Europe powered by clean electricity
About us
The European Association of Electrical Contractors, Avere, Eurelectric, the European Climate Foundation, the European Copper Institute, the European Heat Pump Association, smartEn, SolarPower Europe and WindEurope have joined forces to launch the Electrification Alliance, calling for electricity to be recognised as the key energy carrier for an efficient and decarbonised European future. The Electrification Alliance published a Declaration on Electrification which also has the support of a large number of associations, companies and NGOs. The Declaration states that as electricity in Europe decarbonises, it will reveal its true value as it becomes the key vector for achieving a decarbonised, energy efficient and digital European economy. The Declaration includes a commitment to support reductions in carbon intensity and the scale up of investment in non-emitting technologies like renewables, energy storage and smart grids, while promoting sectoral integration with the heating, cooling and transport sectors. The Declaration on Electrification calls for reforms under the current legislative review of European climate, energy and transport legislation, to accelerate the advancement of electrification in years to come. These will maximise the potential of decarbonised electricity and enabling efficient technologies to advance Europe’s competitiveness, economic growth, job creation, and the promotion of a sustainable, healthy society for European citizens. The Declaration calls on European policymakers to recognise that decarbonised electricity becomes a key vehicle for a sustainable European economy, to remove barriers to electrification, to roll-out the much needed widespread electric vehicle charging infrastructure and to enable the deployment of smart and efficient heating and cooling technologies.

🔌 The EU must lead the way in industrial decarbonisation to reach net-zero! Thay’s why we’re calling on the European Commission to deliver its Electrification Action Plan within its first 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ days in office, setting a framework for Member States to: 1️⃣ Assess grid connections and flexibility opportunities for electrified industrial processes to prevent project delays. 2️⃣ Set national targets for direct electrification, with a focus on clean heating. 3️⃣ Prioritise large heat pumps as the default solution for industrial heat up to 200°C.

👋 It's time to say goodbye to gas boilers and hello to heat pumps – the clean heating and cooling solution powered 100% by #electricity! ⚡ With almost 24 million heat pumps already installed in Europe, did you know that in just over 100 days, they reduce CO₂ emissions equivalent to Croatia's annual output? Now, imagine this impact once the EU reaches net-zero by 2️⃣0️⃣5️⃣0️⃣! 🤯 That is why we're calling on the 🆕 Commission to publish the announced Electrification Action Plan within its first 100 days❗️ Join our #100daysToElectrify call 👇 https://lnkd.in/gPT6vJ7n European Heat Pump Association Paul Kenny Sarah Azau Daniela Floris Mélanie Auvray

🗣 “We need to do much more to decarbonise our economy, an important part of this will be the Electrification Action Plan. If we look at the end consumption of electricity, it’s around 23%.... we need to double this number at least, and it has to happen fast...” – Energy and Housing Commissioner-Designate Dan Jørgensen During the European Parliament’s confirmation hearing of the 🆕 Energy Commissioner-Designate Dan Jørgensen, we were delighted to see his re-affirmed commitment to publishing an Electrification Action Plan. 👏 Specifically, Commissioner-Designate Jørgensen emphasised that: ➡ Electrifying our energy system is the most cost-efficient way to reduce carbon emissions. ➡ Electrification and flexibility can boost European competitiveness. We need the new European Commission to follow through on this promise, and: 🎯 Prioritise EU electrification targets 🤸♀️ Invest in grids and flexibility 👩👩👧👦 Empower citizens and businesses We call on the Commission to publish this plan within its first 100 days❗ Re-watch the hearing 👇 https://lnkd.in/eMUT9X3T AVERE - The European Association for Electromobility European Heat Pump Association Eurelectric EuropeOn - The European Electrical Contractors Association International Copper Association Europe Renewables Grid Initiative smartEn Smart Energy Europe SolarPower Europe Transport & Environment (T&E) WindEurope #100daysToElectrify #ElectrifyNow Image: © European Union 2024

Can the 🆕 European Commission keep up with #electricity demand? ⚡ In 1⃣0⃣0⃣ days, electricity travels at roughly 270,000 km/s depending on the conductor, and a total distance of 2,246,400,000 km, which is the equivalent of: 🌍 56,050 trips around the Earth’s circumference. 🌑 2,921 round trips from the Earth to the Moon. ☀ 7.5 roundtrips from the Earth to the sun! While the Commission may not be able to match those speeds, it must publish an Electrification Action Plan in its first 100 days. 💪 Let's move #electrificaiton to the fast track! ⏩ Join our #100daysToElectrify call 👇 https://lnkd.in/gPT6vJ7n AVERE - The European Association for Electromobility European Heat Pump Association Eurelectric EuropeOn - The European Electrical Contractors Association International Copper Association Europe Renewables Grid Initiative smartEn Smart Energy Europe SolarPower Europe Transport & Environment (T&E) WindEurope Kristian Ruby Paul Wilczek Nicholas A.

Eurelectric's President and CEO of E.ON, Leo Birnbaum has crunched the numbers on the forecasted rate of #electrification until 2030, and the results are eye-opening: 💡 To keep up with the surge of new #electric solutions requesting grid connections, for E.ON one connection needs to be made every seven seconds of the working day from now until 2030 in Germany alone. In just 100 days, that's roughly 294,000 connections. Scale that across 27 EU Member States, and the numbers become staggering. With this demand for rapid connections, a European Commission Electrification Action Plan in 100 days isn’t just feasible—it’s essential! ⚡️ Find out more 👇 https://lnkd.in/gPT6vJ7n #100daysToElectrify Kristian Ruby Nicholas A.
