Accelerating Renewable Energy Adoption: Insights from REDIII Implementation Challenges and Solutions
Key Ideas
- REDIII aims to significantly increase the use of renewable fuels of non-biological origin in transport and industry, doubling the ambition from the previous REDII.
- Despite existing mechanisms for implementation, many EU Member States are facing delays in transposing the directive into national law, particularly related to RFNBO targets in transport.
- A panel of experts and decision-makers from European institutions, national authorities, and industry will discuss best practices and challenges in implementing REDIII, focusing on factors like compliance methods, national targets, and interactions with other legislation.
- Speakers from various sectors including energy, renewable policy, and hydrogen will share insights on potential options and considerations in designing effective national implementation mechanisms to meet REDIII targets.
The Renewable Energy Directive III (REDIII) aims to drive the adoption of renewable energy sources by creating a favorable regulatory framework, particularly emphasizing the use of renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBO) in transport and industry. The directive sets ambitious targets, including doubling renewable energy targets in the transport sector compared to REDII. However, the implementation of REDIII faces challenges, with many EU Member States struggling to transpose the directive into national law by the deadline of May 21, 2025. Delays are primarily linked to complexities in meeting RFNBO targets, choosing compliance methods, and aligning with other relevant EU legislation. To address these challenges, an expert panel comprising representatives from European institutions, national authorities, and affected companies will convene to discuss best practices and potential pitfalls in implementing REDIII. The session will cover topics such as compliance mechanisms, national target setting, penalties for non-compliance, and harmonization with other renewable fuel regulations. Notable speakers include experts in renewable energy, hydrogen, and energy policy, offering valuable insights on designing effective national strategies to meet REDIII objectives in a sustainable manner.
