European Initiative for Energy Security

Europe’s energy transition and security are threatened by strategic, economic, political, and environmental challenges. Russia's invasion of Ukraine and weaponization of energy supplies, and China's increasing dominance of critical material supply chains have highlighted vulnerabilities and complicated contentious socio-economic and environmental trade-offs. Higher energy costs are driving inflation and hitting industries and citizens alike, triggering a wave of backlash that threatens to derail Europe from its transition to greater independence and security.

EIES works on the development of pan-European and global alliances and concrete, realistic solutions to de-risk Europe's transition and ensure energy security, strategic autonomy, and prosperity across the continent.
