Fight for the climate – Switzerland could run on solar energy alone

According to a new study carried out by Greenpeace Switzerland, photovoltaics would be “the key to a secure and climate-friendly energy supply”.

"If all countries had the same climate ambitions as Switzerland, we would risk up to 3 degrees of global warming", warns Greenpeace Switzerland in a new study devoted to the potential of photovoltaics.

Following a first version issued in 2013, the NGO recalls all the challenges of this energy transition to be implemented. “Through scenarios developed by independent experts, we would like to contribute to the climate dialogue and show that the range of possibilities is much greater than what the government and a large part of society believe.”
