French President Francois Hollande on Tuesday proposed energy producers
and consumers build a common fund for investment in alternatives to fossil
fuel.
"We can act together to be capable of creating a post-oil world," he
said at the opening of a summit in
Abu
Dhabi
on the future of energy.
He also said the European Union should target higher standards for 2030. Already
the 27-nation bloc has committed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 20% by
2020, while ensuring that 20% of its energy is from sustainable sources and
seeking to consume 20% less energy by the same year.
It has not, however, set any binding targets post-2020, but the debate is
heating up in
Brussels
.
