Mar 27, 2026 - Europe`s electrification ambitions hinge on grid investment
Electrification is central to Europe`s energy transition, but network constraints are emerging as a critical bottleneck. Eva Mancera, CEO of i-DE Redes Eléctricas Inteligentes Iberdrola, warns that without faster investment, climate and industrial goals could stall. Europe`s transition to electrification is moving slower than needed to meet decarbonisation targets. “Electricity still represents only slightly above 20% of total final energy consumption in the EU,” notes Mancera, “a figure that has barely changed in the last decade.” She emphasises that accelerating electrification is not just about climate. It`s a strategic opportunity for industry and innovation.
