The way a European grid could work would be a legally binding framework of funding for supply, with the market giving extra incentive to do the right thing.
A European grid could work very nicely, but it will require some countries investing above their own needs - eg Spain going for solar whilst it's currently self sufficient, Norway, Scotland and Alpine regions going for stored hydro to provide rapid battery like power for peak demand etc.
