Against the backdrop of the continent’s record-breaking heatwave this summer and soaring energy prices, Europe is facing an imminent energy crisis that refocuses attention on the impact of climate change. Exacerbated by increasing geopolitical tension and pressure to reduce the long-term reliance on imported Russian gas supplies, the resurgence of nuclear power indicates that a turbulent transition period is in store.
As pressure mounts for the economic bloc to curb the dominance of gas on the price of the electricity market, what are the implications for energy players and consumers? How to define gas as a source of green energy? Will energy security trump energy transition in the short term? The European Chamber Energy Working Group is delighted to welcome representatives of the Delegation of the European Union to China, International Energy Agency (IEA) and various industry experts to examine the global energy crisis and the challenges ahead.
中国欧盟商会能源工作组很高兴邀请欧盟驻华代表团能源与气候行动参赞，国际能源署能源分析师以及行业专家，于9月23日（星期五）15:00-17:00 就欧洲能源危机与气候政策最新动向进行深入解读。
