- The EU is facing an unprecedented energy crisis, with prices soaring and Russia reducing gas deliveries.
On Thursday members of Parliament’s industry, research and energy committee will debate measures proposed to prevent disruptions during the winter with Mechthild Wörsdörfer, the Director-General of the European Commission's energy department.
In July, EU countries agreed to reduce demand of natural gas by 15% until 31 March 2023 in order to be ready for any scenario. Although not all countries face a significant risk of shortages, severe disruptions on certain member states are bound to affect the EU’s economy as a whole.
