Hard to know what this is about from the headline alone, and I can't read the article.
The point of the article is that the EU should have moved faster to achieve energy independence after 2022 gas crisis. Dependence on foreign oil and gas is a limiting factor for the EU. So, more heat pumps and more electric vehicles.
What the article does not mention is that, renewables notwithstanding, most electricity is generated with coal (base load) and gas turbines (for fast load changes). This solves nothing in itself. Nuclear is taboo in some countries and a hot topic in others. Either way it will take a long time to solve this.
