Legal-Economic Solutions to Promote the Use of Renewable Energy Sources in the European Union

The current research is a study regarding some legal-economic solutions for the use of energy from renewable sources such as light and heat from the sun and wind, which causes a balanced use of energy from fossil fuels and also the control of climate change caused by economic activities with the origin of use comes from fossil fuel energy. In order to achieve the goal of this research, some legal-economic solutions of the European Union (EU) in the field of using renewable energy have been considered. To collect information, the library method is used, and the research method is descriptive-analytical. The importance of examining the solutions considered by this legal system is because the European Union is one of the pioneers in the use of renewable energy. According to the data published by the International Monetary Fund in 2022, the EU is the third-largest economic power in the world, and in this sense, it is important to examine the solutions considered by the European Union as well. The European Union formulated and adopted different solutions for investors, producers and consumers in two major packages. The first package, entitled 2020 Climate and Energy Package, and the second, called Clean Energy for all Europeans, were adopted in 2009 and 2019, respectively. The current research is more focused on the latter package. According to the studies, the European Union has provided various solutions to promote the use of renewable energy, including Feed-in Premium, which is in line with the market movement in diverse sectors, including electricity, cooling and heating, and transportation. Therefore, the European Union has been able to attract the opinion of investors in this field by using efficient legal solutions, and focusing on the teachings of this legal system in the aforesaid field could have significant results for other legal systems.
