Between 2010 and 2019, electricity generation from renewable energy sources (RES) in the 11 central EU member states grew at a slower rate than in Western Europe (4% vs. 6% average annual growth). On the scale of the whole continent, the average growth of green electricity production from 2010-2019 amounted to 40%.

Even without extreme weather events, the power grid needs love. The grid was largely built in the 1950s and 1960s with a 35- to 80-year life expectancy , meaning much of it should have been retired and replaced by now. As a result, transmission lines swell and sag and, in some cases, can topple infrastructure. .
