Rural areas will be key to the rollout of renewable energy in the European Union (EU), as they hold vast potential for wind, solar, grids and storage siting. As a result, most decarbonisation scenarios position rural areas as renewable energy powerhouses, creating great opportunities for these regions. However, rural areas also feature specific challenges in the energy transition that should be taken into account.
