The electrification observatory is out

"I could call it the green transition, but I could also call it a transition toward more affordable energy, towards more energy independence."

“Electrification should be at the core of our competitiveness, energy security, and climate objectives.”

“If we want to achieve a higher level of competitiveness and independence, it really makes sense to invest much more in electrification”

"Our plans to boost electrification and decarbonise heating and cooling will support industry, the buildings and mobility sectors in replacing the use of dirty fossil fuels with decarbonised energy at competitive prices. This is a win-win for the economy, and for the climate."

"The future is electric"

"When we look at energy security, [...] I see one future for Europe, electrify everything, as much as you can, transportation, industry and so on."

Beyond the crisis: Electrifying Europe and Overcoming Fragmentation

On 9 September, European Commission officials, MEPs, Member State representatives, and industry leaders gathered near the European Parliament to launch the Electrification Alliance's new Electrification Observatory and make the case that closing Europe's electrification gap is not just a climate priority, but a matter of energy security.

Making this fossil fuel crisis Europe’s last one

Ahead of the State of the European Union address, over 200 civil society, industry and policy organisations called on President Ursula von der Leyen to commission an independent report on Europe's fossil fuel dependence, arguing that this summer's fuel crisis and record heatwaves show the cost of inaction can no longer be treated as separate problems.

Who we are

We are an alliance of associations that believes electrification is the future of the European Union’s energy system.

Electrification is built reliable and well-known technologies with ready solutions. There is no more time to waste on uncertain developments that won’t necessarily deliver what we need.

Electrification is the process of switching away from fossil fuels toward the use of clean and renewable electricity. Many sectors, such as transport, industry, buildings and heating & cooling can undergo the process of electrification. It is increasingly powered by renewable energy sources like wind and solar and supported by demand-side flexibility. Smart electricity grids make the system highly sustainable, dependable and efficient.

Electrification presents so many benefits and can have an extremely positive impact on the European economy and citizens:

3.5M

Addional jobs by 2030

20M tonnes

CO2 emissions avoided by electric cars in 2025

€60B

Can be avoided in fossil fuel imports through heat pumps

-50%

Of external energy imports by 2040

Our members

Our alliance brings together experts from renewable energy, transport, heating, grid infrastructure, and electrification technologies, united by a shared vision: a future where electricity drives Europe’s energy system, reducing emissions, enhancing energy efficiency, and ensuring affordable power for all.
