Christmas is a special time to reach hundreds of men and women in need in our community," said Stephen Hinkel, public relations manager. "The holidays can be a difficult time, and receiving a warm holiday meal can provide hope. The Mission has partnered with people and businesses across the city to help provide a holiday meal to these men and women, so they have the opportunity to celebrate Christmas." More than 40 volunteers rolled up their sleeves to dish out the special meal at the Lawrence Street Community Center in downtown Denver, including CBS News Colorado's Alan Gionet and Mekialaya White. Since 1892, Denver Rescue Mission has been meeting the needs of the poor and homeless through emergency services, rehabilitation, transitional programs and community outreach 365 days a year. The share of renewable sources in gross final energy consumption at the EU level reached 23.0% in 2022. Compared with 2021, this represents an increase of 1.1 percentage points (pp). The revised Renewable Energy Directive has revised upwards the EU’s 2030 renewable energy target from 32% to 42.5% (with an aim to increase it to 45%). Therefore, EU countries need to intensify their efforts to collectively comply with the new EU target for 2030, which requires increasing the share of renewable energy sources in the EU’s gross final energy consumption by almost 20 pp. Sweden leads among EU countries, with nearly two-thirds (66.0%) of its gross final energy consumption in 2022 derived from renewable sources. Sweden relied primarily on hydro, wind, solid and liquid biofuels, as well as heat pumps. Finland (47.9%) followed, also relying on hydro, wind and solid biofuels, ahead of Latvia (43.3%), which depended mostly on hydro. Both Denmark (41.6%), followed by Estonia (38.5%), got most of the renewables from wind and solid biofuels. Portugal (34.7%) relied on solid biofuels, wind, hydro and heat pumps, while Austria (33.8%) utilised mostly hydro and solid biofuels.
