Europe
Europe is the world’s fourth-largest emitter of carbon dioxide and sixth-largest emitter of methane, a potent greenhouse gas.
The European Union has pledged to cut emissions 55% by 2030, achieve climate neutrality by 2050 and carry out an economy-wide plan to help keep global temperatures below 1.5 degrees Celsius.
EDF Europe is working with the EU to speed up the transition to a global net-zero economy. Our goal is to usher in a new era of solutions that slow climate change and address other critical environmental issues.
Our work
We’re focused on reducing climate and air pollution, reducing energy demand, advancing climate-smart agriculture and ensuring that hydrogen is produced and used responsibly.
