The focus on achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 has intensified over the past year. European Governments, in particular, are even more determined to accelerate the rollout of renewable energy in the wake of the conflict in Ukraine which has led to soaring commodity prices and an increased urgency to end dependency on Russian fossil fuels.
