Webinar | Energy Prices Crisis: What Now for Europe?

Recent geopolitical tensions once again exposed the vulnerability of global energy markets and their impact on European energy prices. As the EU advances its decarbonisation goals, ensuring stable and affordable energy prices remains a key challenge. This webinar explored the lessons learned from recent price spikes and discussed how European policy tools, particularly State Aid instruments, could strengthen resilience against future disruptions. Experts shared perspectives on competitiveness, energy resilience and the clean energy transition. What worked well in the EU’s response to recent energy price spikes, and where are the gaps? How can State Aid and other policy tools be improved to enhance resilience against future shocks? What role can clean energy and electrification play in mitigating price volatility over the longer term?
