Welcome to Zero Island
Neste’s Zero Island project cuts emissions on Lidö by 78%. Sweden is aiming to become climate neutral by 2045. However, it has been estimated by the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that we may have as little as twelve years to tackle climate change. To examine what it takes to reduce CO2 emissions as fast as possible, Neste and its partners set to turn the island of Lidö in the Swedish archipelago into a climate neutral Zero Island in just twelve months. As a result of the...
Poland’s Renewable Drive Praised for Contributing to “Exceptional Year” for European Solar Energy
Despite its modest progress in terms of solar energy, the Polish government and the country’s adoption of renewables has been praised for its contribution to what has been described as “an exceptional year” for solar energy in the European Union. It is estimated that by the end of 2019, the number of solar panels installed across the EU during 2019 will increase by 81% to 20.4 GW as a result of a 2018 levy removal on imported solar panels. This was also boosted by political will shown by EU m...
