Russia's war pushed Europe to a tipping point on wind and solar

• So far this year in the EU, wind and solar generated more electricity than fossil fuels.
• Renewable energy met 50% of EU's power needs while fossil fuels met 27%, an Ember analysis found.
• The shift raises questions about new US gas export terminals amid declining European demand.

For the first time, wind and solar generated more of the European Union's electricity than fossil fuels during the first half of the year.
