Politico Energy and Climate Forum
The fallout from the US-Israel war in Iran is already rippling through global markets. But the worst may still lie ahead for Europe. As oil and gas supplies tighten and prices spike, the shock is seeping into every corner of the economy, from manufacturing to borrowing costs and demand shifts.
Against this gloomy backdrop, how can policymakers contain the damage to avoid deeper economic impact? And beyond the short term, what will this energy shock mean for Europe’s households and its industrial competitiveness? As governments scramble to respond, the crisis is accelerating another shift: Europe’s clean transition. It’s no longer seen predominately as a climate imperative, but a question of economic security. Which policy moves will help safeguard the bloc’s sovereignty while reducing its emissions?
Join us at POLITICO’s Energy & Climate Forum as we unpack these hot-button issues. On stage, our in-house journalists will lead frank, authoritative discussions with the policymakers, industry leaders and policy experts shaping Europe’s response.
