Abstract

This study performs an exploratory analysis of the evolution of primary production of RES for EU28 countries over the ten years studied. Through the analysis, the document presents: the structure of production by sectors of production and by renewable energy sources, analyses the evolution of the mentioned indicators both in total and in detail on each renewable energy source and allows the identification of differences in the level of production from RES: between countries and regions. The analysis shows that these countries have implemented EU strategies in the field and exceeded the proposed target for 2020 starting from 2017. Among the most important RESs in primary energy production were the sources: Hydro, Wind and Solar, in the countries from the EU28 due to the existence of a natural potential that has been exploited and encouraged by the country-specific internal policies, but also due to the development of technologies and lower costs for these renewable energy sources.
