European Academies’ Science Advisory Council (EASAC) report launch event: Security of sustainable energy supplies

In an increasingly volatile geopolitical landscape, Europe’s energy security is at a crossroads. The advancing energy transition is reshaping the energy system. Policy debates must address how energy and security domains are governed, how citizens can contribute to energy security, how developments in international relations influence the price and availability of energy, and how energy infrastructure within and across national borders can be protected.

Join the European Academies’ Science Advisory Council (EASAC) for the launch of the new report on “Security of Sustainable Energy Supplies“, in which eminent scientists from all over Europe examine the various facets of energy security, discussing their findings with EU policymakers and the broader energy community. The launch will take place in-person in Brussels and will be streamed online simultaneously.
