Two highly topical fact sheets have just been uploaded on IENE's website, providing a concise overview on crucial issues concerning the electricity and gas markets in SE Europe
Decarbonisation policies in SE Europe, in the light of both climate change and the outbreak of the war in Ukraine, was the focus of the joint IENE – ROEC event that took place on Wednesday, March 13, in the Romanian capital, Bucharest
The Russian invasion of Ukraine exposed Europe’s most severe and deep-rooted energy security vulnerabilities and exacerbated the energy crisis caused by gas supply deficits on global markets since 2021. The crisis revealed that most countries in SE Europe are particularly vulnerable to energy security risks
As the repercussions of the latest energy crisis are still being felt across Europe, the Institute is going ahead with its plans to organise the annual “SEE Energy Dialogue” which will be held in Thessaloniki, in June
