This article makes it sound very unrealistic.
But emission is already down 45% since 1990 in the EU and they're ahead of the original targets because of the war with Russia.
In 2023 alone emission from the power sector was cut by 23%.
I would not be surprised if this target is met a lot sooner than 2040.

Investing in the energy sector makes a lot of sense for the EU because one of its biggest problems is the cost of energy, mainly caused by its reliance on fossil fuels.
So also purely from an economical point of view this is a good strategy.
