Building resilience to fossil fuel import vulnerabilities

Building resilience to fossil fuel import vulnerabilities

The world’s dependence on imported fossil fuels has once again been exposed. Recent events in the Middle East have highlighted the fragility of fossil fuel supply chains, only four years after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine triggered a global energy crisis. Regions highly exposed to fossil fuel imports, notably Asia and Europe, are increasingly confronting the risks this poses to energy security and affordability. Join analysts from global energy think tank Ember – Dr Dinita Setyawati, Dr Beatrice Petrovich and Daan Walter – for a global discussion with perspectives from Asia and Europe. They unpack where fossil fuel import vulnerabilities are greatest and what countries can do to strengthen their energy security by accelerating renewables and electrification.
