Europe is facing a massive climate dilemma. As summer heatwaves become more frequent and intense, the demand for air conditioning is skyrocketing. But can the continent’s green energy grid handle 100% of this crushing power demand without relying on fossil fuels?
In this video, we break down the simple math of what it would actually take to power Europe’s cooling needs using purely wind and solar energy. From the exact number of wind turbines and solar panels required to the massive financial costs and power grid roadblocks, we look at whether a completely green cooling infrastructure is realistically possible.
