EcoCrops International Update


EcoCrops International reports that the  EU’s Renewable Energy Directive has been recast, raising the renewables target and establishing a clear and stable regulatory framework on self-consumption. Despite the positives there has also been criticism, especially over the definition of biomass. What were these concerns and what has the recast changed?

In 2009, the Juncker Commission set about building policies to ensure “a resilient Energy Union and a forward-looking climate change policy”. As part of this, the Renewable Energy Directive (RED) was created, which initially set the binding target of 20% final energy consumption from renewable sources by 2020.
Since its creation, the RED has been revised and evaluated a number of times and now forms part of the European Union’s (EU) Clean Energy Package (2016). In June, RED was again recast at a meeting of the Commission, the European Parliament and the Council. Amendments were made to ensure that targets and frameworks are in line with the progress Europe is making in creating a greener energy network.

EcoCrops International Biomass project in Estonia has been designed to help the EU commission to meet it targets

Is something bad going to happen to the Stock Market

Jeffrey Gundlach the famed American inventor and business mogul believes that the global stock market is signalling 'something bad' is happening. Why would anyone listen? He has the pedigree and experience to make people sit up and listen. Gundlach was formerly the head of the $9.3 billion TCW Total Return Bond Fund, where he finished in the top 2% of all funds invested in intermediate-term bonds for the 10 years that ended prior to his departure. He was fired by TCW in 2009. In 2009, shortly after his firing from TCW, Gundlach founded Doubleline, along with Philip Barach and 14 other members of Gundlach's senior staff from TCW.  Barach was Gundlach's co-manager of the $12 Billion TCW Total Return bond fund.  In a February 2011 cover story, Barron's called him the "King of Bonds."
