There is a real risk that we will not have enough energy for our society, the Commissioner said.
There is a risk of energy shortages in Europe next winter, European Commissioner for Energy Kadri Simson said during the Three Seas business forum, the EC press service reported on Tuesday, June 21.
“Renewable energy sources and energy efficiency are needed, but they are not enough. Right now we can’t afford to cover Russia’s gas shortage alone. Winter is near, and it won’t be an easy moment. Not only are we looking at high prices, there is a real risk that we don’t have enough energy for our society, ”Simson said.
He made such a statement against the backdrop of a sharp reduction in Gazprom’s European gas supplies-Nord Stream-1 is now loaded by 40%, and Turkish Stream has been shut down for a week.
