EconPol Europe Webinar, 10 April 2024
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was a wake-up call for Europe regarding its levels of dependence on the energy and metals fronts, and the associated threats this posed to its competitiveness. Meanwhile, the need to decarbonize the economy has become ever more pressing. What is needed now, is the look ahead on the road towards a decarbonized energy system in a competitive Europe. We would like to discuss with you main challenges and chances and the role that individual members states and the EU should play on this road.
Leading energy expert from different EU countries discussed major challenges and chances after the upcoming EU elections; and the role that individual members states and the EU should play on this road:
Pedro Linares, Professor of Industrial Engineering at the ICAI School of Engineering
David Newbery, Director of the Cambridge Energy Policy Research Group
Georg Zachmann, Senior Fellow at Bruegel
The discussion was based on the EconPol Policy Report “Watts Next: Securing Europe’s Energy and Competitiveness Where the EU’s Energy Policy Should Go Now” of which key insights will be presented.
