Since its unveiling in December 2019, The EU Green Deal became one of the EU’s most ambitious policies, aiming at protecting the planet and Europeans from environmental degradations, through a holistic approach to the energy transition, promoting sustainable growth and a just transition. Three years later, the world went through a global pandemic, and Europe in particular found itself in the midst of another storm, which is the war in Ukraine.
