“Russia's recent sharp cuts in gas flows to the EU mean this is the 1st month on record that the EU imported more LNG from the US than via pipeline from Russia,” Fatih Birol wrote in a post on Twitter, noting that “the reduction in Russian supply requires efforts to reduce demand in the EU to prepare for a difficult winter”
The head of the International Energy Agency he sees as a possible solution to the problem the return to nuclear energy, which he points out will depend on the decisions of the governments of European countries.
Fatih also points out that “nuclear energy has a unique opportunity to bounce back amid the global energy crisis, soaring fossil fuel prices, energy security challenges and heightened climate ambitions” “But whether this will happen, it will depend on governments and industry”.
