Energy Crisis in Europe: Strategic Thinking in Times of Emergency

RSVP

A roundtable discussion with Common Sense Society–Hungary

Események áttekintése

The European energy market is going through a fundamental and unprecedented transformation. The war in Ukraine, together with the preceding COVID-19 recovery measures, have led to skyrocketing energy prices unseen for decades. At the same time, a new race for energy sources has started in Europe with the intention of securing electricity and heating fuel for the coming winter and beyond without Russia.

From shale gas extraction to the cutting of ancient forests, the European landscape is also under large pressure. Most European countries are taking extraordinary measures to save energy or subsidize utilities, yet consumers, businesses, and local municipalities are still hard-pressed paying their utility bills.

Is long-term, strategic thinking still possible under such geopolitical challenges? Does Europe have a chance for an affordable and climate-friendly energy system? Can we be good stewards of our natural resources in times of emergency?

Join Common Sense Society–Hungary on January 11 for a roundtable discussion with Dr. Márton Ugrósdy, Dr. János Zlinszky, and Mr. András Huszár. The program starts at 6.00 p.m. and the discussion will be followed by a reception.

Chatham House rules apply.
