An analysis by SolarPower Europe has found that solar and wind energy have cut Europe's electricity prices by 25% and saved the continent more than €100 million per day. The report describes Europe as 'decoupling from fossil fuel shocks', arguing that home-grown renewables are shielding consumers from volatile gas prices and reducing dependence on imported fossil fuels.
Why now: Energy prices and Europe's shift away from fossil fuels remain a live political and economic concern.
