EU needs to share the costs of energy independence

Two of the probably most pressing and important goals currently pursued by the EU are closely linked: To achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, the EU needs to massively promote the expansion of renewable energies. At the same time, this also factors into achieving complete independence from Russian energy supplies. However, both goals can only be reached if the EU pursues a plan for joint financing and does not leave the countries to fend for themselves.
