Europe can ask for help from the existing natural gas exporter Algeria or Nigeria, and can also introduce more liquefied natural gas from the United States to make up for the supply.With the advancement of the expansion of the oilfield expansion project in northern Qatar, the liquefied natural gas supply will increase in 2025, and the energy market may show a more stable situation.
(Washington Composite Electric) Global energy prices have a serious impact on European energy supply due to unknown prospects of the Russian war, which has rethinking how to reduce the Western economy how to reduceDependence on Russian energy.The Ukrainian crisis may reshape the global energy market.
Russia suffered international sanctions after invading Ukraine, extending from the initial financial market to energy supply.After the implementation of sanctions, supply disorders have led to surge in global energy prices.European countries are urgently seeking response to policies and suppressing inflation caused by the surge in energy prices. Sweden, Belgium, and the Netherlands choose to reduce energy taxes. Germany decided to double energy auxiliary funds, and France ordered to reduce gasoline prices.
Russia is the third largest oil producer in the world. Russia's natural gas and oil account for about 40%and 25%of EU imports, respectively.
The European Union's European Commission Chairman Feng Delin recently emphasized that Europe needs to accelerate the promotion of clean energy technology to get rid of the dependence on Russia's energy.
The plan released by the committee on March 8 requires the end of the dependence on Russia's fossil fuel before 2030. By the end of this year, Russian natural gas imports will be reduced by two -thirds.This plan greatly advances the timetable of EU energy transformation.In order to achieve the goal, the European Union will seek diversification of natural gas supply, accelerate renewable energy investment, and find natural gas replacement energy.
According to VOA, Henry Lee, director of the environment and natural resources project of Harvard University, said that although it meets the long -term strategic goals of Europe, the dependence on Russian energy in the short term will cause Europeans to suffer.
Henry predicts that if Europe cuts off Russian natural gas supply, runs its liquefied natural gas receiving station with nearly 100%capabilities, uses all storage and reduces 15%consumption. They will still face 15%to 20%next winter next winter.gap.There will be more alternatives from the next three to five years.
Europe can ask for help from the existing natural gas exporter Algeria or Nigeria, and can also introduce more liquefied natural gas from the United States to make up for the supply.
With the advancement of the expansion of the northern Qatar's oil field, the LNG supply will increase in 2025, and the energy market may be more stable.
Experts: The EU's political influence of carbon reduction plan will significantly weaken
Wood Director of the global European project agent of Wilson Center believes that as the European Union continues to advanceThe carbon reduction plan will significantly weaken Russia's political influence.
He said: "In the long run, energy transformation will completely resolve Russia's influence on European energy. Beixi No. 2 project is the peak of Russia's energy strength in Europe, but Putin launched the war in UkraineAccelerate the decline of this strength. "
Russia, which faces Western sanctions, will be forced to seek new partners, and neighboring China is one of the possible choices.Before the Ukraine crisis, China was one of the largest export markets for Russia's oil, natural gas and coal.
European energy analyst Marcarevitz said: "Russia is seeking to strengthen business connection with Eastern countries, but this relationship will continue to depend on the evolution of sanctions and crises."
