Energy ministers from nine southern European Union member countries have come together to focus on harnessing offshore wind and solar energy in an effort to transform the Mediterranean region into a renewable energy hub and mitigate the risks of climate change.
The officials are working on establishing joint renewable energy projects across borders to attract investors and streamline the process without bureaucratic hurdles. They have called on the European Commission to conduct a study on the region's renewable energy potential to facilitate informed decision-making and concrete action on green energy initiatives.
