Some months ago, I embarked on a new adventure with the Green European Foundation and Edouard Gaudot, aiming at identifying proposals to improve 4 dimensions of the Future #EUEnergy Project. With the incredible input of stellar experts Joanna Pandera PhD, Jesse Scott, Rosa Martínez Rodríguez, Benjamin Denis and Antoine Oger, and through the generous help of the many #GEFKnowledgeCommunities participants, I'm very happy and proud to share the now published Political Briefs on 2 of the 4 dimensions ⤵ 1. #EnergySecurity dimension, with following key take-aways: The EU must drastically change the way it approaches energy security in order to face the #ClimateEmergency, geopolitical turmoil & social challenges. Updating the European Energy Security Strategy is thereby a key priority, and should be founded on zero-emission, reliable and resilient energy. Putting this Strategy in practice is as important, and must focus on: 💡 Strong planning, detailed guidance to and democratic engagement of households, businesses and national as well as local governments; 💡 Provision of the necessary funding and investment space; 💡 Demand-side measures; 💡 Foregrounding of social impacts, and concerns - the EU's energy security is not fulfilled until energy poverty is eliminated from its soils. Read the full brief here: https://lnkd.in/e2CC-6qJ 2. #Social dimension, where we call to think beyond the current frameworks: By shifting away from an individual, consumption-driven approach, towards a thoughtfully planned, collective one, the EU can create support of citizens and make them drivers of the transition. How? 💡 Providing support to fight energy poverty and to include more people in the transition to clean energy systems, while reducing overconsumption and maximising efficiency and sufficiency; 💡 Adopting a future-proof, socially just industrial strategy, with a strong, well-informed focus on skills, both in labour market and education policy; 💡 Deploying the highest social and environmental conditionalities, at home and abroad; 💡 Delivering the needed investments through a balanced combination of new money, new paradigm and new tax system.

Daniel Yergin’s expertise has been a cornerstone in my professional journey. I have always been an avid follower of his commentary on key issues related to Energy sector. His book, “The Prize,” was the beginning of a profound educational experience. I have been doing some catching up on my reading during this summer vacation and came across his article Here are my key takeaways: Energy Security: A foundational element for a seamless transition. Economic Impacts: Navigating the economic ramifications is crucial. North-South Divide: Harmonizing energy progress across the globe. Mineral Supply Chains: Securing these is vital for technological advancements. Looking forward to reading Yergin’s “The New Map,” and wrapping up the circular economy course in MIT Professional Education #EnergySecurity #GlobalEconomy #EnergyEquity #circulareconomy

Among the wide-ranging impacts of climate change is an increased risk to energy security, or the availability of affordable and reliable energy sources. Research by Dr Bernard Njindan Iyke, published in Energy Economics, has found that clean energy investment is not only good for the environment, but also makes an important contribution to reducing energy security risk. “A move away from traditional sources of energy, such as fossil fuel and biomass, to green energy sources would significantly reduce energy security risk by minimising GHG emissions and slowing down climate change,” he explains. Dr Iyke argues that, when it comes to clean energy, there is a need for countries to set clear targets and long-term strategic plans. “Policymakers should implement financial incentives – such as tax breaks, subsidies and grants – to attract investors to clean energy projects, and regulatory frameworks to ensure speedy, transparent, accessible and fair approval and permitting processes,” he says. “Countries should also target public-private partnerships to enhance risk-sharing, capacity, research and development, and pooling of funds to invest in clean energy projects.” Read more: https://bit.ly/3NbYVmY And, find out more about the La Trobe Business School's Department of Accounting, Data Analytics, Economics and Finance: https://bit.ly/3rBriUq #LaTrobeBusinessSchool #LaTrobeUniversity
