Beyond Fossil Fuels

Beyond Fossil Fuels Our vision is a just transition to a fossil-free, renewables-based European power sector by 2035.

Beyond Fossil Fuels is a collective civil society campaign committed to ensuring all of Europe’s electricity is generated from fossil-free, renewable energy by 2035. It expands and builds upon the Europe Beyond Coal campaign, and its goal of a coal-free Europe in power and heat by 2030 at the latest. Our vision is of a European energy system predominantly powered by wind and solar energy, that min

imises waste, and maximises efficiency through the electrification of heating, industry and transport, the insulation of buildings and delivery of power via smart technology. This system-wide transformation should be ambitious and fair, protecting people, communities and nature, and result in the dismantling of the fossil fuel industry that drives up costs, finances armed conflicts, damages our health, undermines our democracies, and is responsible for environmental destruction and worsening climate change. The Beyond Fossil Fuels campaign is funded by the European Climate Foundation, ClimateWorks and the Schwab charitable foundation. It is legally a part of Climate Action Network Europe, which is based in Brussels. The campaign has close ties with Beyond Coal campaigns in the U.S., Australia, Korea and Japan.

Europe could deploy 700+ GW of fossil-free flexibility by 2050, nearly 4× the continent’s gas plant capacity today.
That’s the scale at which clean flexibility can replace fossil gas while keeping power systems reliable!
Remember, fossil gas drove the 10× spike in electricity prices during the 2021–2022 energy crisis, and today’s war in Iran once again highlights the risks of fossil fuel dependence.
📅 By July, EU countries must submit Flexibility Needs Assessments to the EU, a key opportunity to accelerate clean flexibility and move beyond fossil gas.

With new data centres driving up electricity demand, urgent steps need to be taken to limit their energy consumption and ensure Europe’s emissions continue to fall.

If you were the German Chancellor, would you invest in gas or renewables right now? 👀
With energy prices still shaped by global gas crises, the choice matters more than ever. So we took the question to the streets.
What would you choose?

What happens when civil society shows up at a company’s AGM?
Yesterday we went to Siemens Energy’s first-ever public AGM to ask them directly how they plan to clean up their fossil gas business.
Come with us and see how it went. 🎥👇

While Siemens Energy is celebrating record revenues in its first ever public AGM and continuing to promote its ‘green’ credentials, we can’t forget that it’s also the second largest global supplier of gas turbines for gas-fired plants under development around the world.
We came by to say:
✔️Phase out gas turbines.
✔️Power data centres with renewables, not fossil gas.
✔️Align the business model with the transition it claims to support.

Big Tech frames AI as a climate solution. But a new report takes off the rose-tinted smart glasses and shows a harsher reality: plenty of evidence that power-hungry generative AI is harming our planet, and little solid proof it can fight climate change.

Comment HOAX for a copy of the report!

If your energy system runs on imported fossil gas, you don’t have much control over your energy bills!
1️⃣ Geopolitical tensions and conflict = price spikes.
2️⃣ Price spikes = higher bills and inflation.

You can’t sanction the wind and you can’t embargo the sun, that’s real energy security.

We've collected 12,000 signatures so far! 👏

Public serving buildings like schools, hospitals and municipal offices in Türkiye should all generate their electricity from solar power.

This is a low-hanging fruit for the country that would help reduce energy bills, ensure energy independence and provide power security, especially during disasters.

Not to mention the climate benefits. Support our solar petition in Türkiye!
