Gas and Security of Supply in the EU
With the Russia-Ukraine gas dispute in January 2006 and a particularly cold winter in Europe, including the UK, natural gas has hit the headlines. The geopolitical dimension of gas has become ever more important as gas supplies come from ever further away.
The depletion of reserves in the OECD, high prices and a tense international political situation, have given security of supply a whole new meaning. At the European level, the Commission has passed the Security of Supply Directive and there is also discussion about an EU wide energy policy in which security of supply will be key. Gas will be at the centre of this debate.
