Blue & Green Tomorrow: Bulgaria, Estonia and Sweden met their 2020 renewables targets eight years early
Bulgaria, Estonia and Sweden met their 2020 renewable energy targets in 2011/12, according to new analysis from the statistical office of the European Union.
At the other end of the scale, the UK was ranked as one of the lowest renewable energy generators. It achieved just a 4.2% share in 2012 - far short of its 2020 target of 15%.
Overall, the new statistics reveal that in 2020, energy from renewable sources contributed 14.1% of gross final energy consumption in the 28 EU member states.
The EU's current overall target dictates that the EU28 must have 20% share of energy from renewable sources.
