As Russia’s aggression in Ukraine continues and Moscow’s cuts in European gas deliveries start to bite, how can European consumers and industries get through the coming winter months?
The European Union is putting in place measures to help member states soften the blow for citizens facing soaring energy prices, to help industries worried about energy supplies, and to help Ukraine.
European Commissioner for Energy, Kadri Simson, walks us through key issues of supply diversification, EU support for consumers and the impact of sanctions on Russia. We’re also joined by the Energy Community to explain how Europe is helping Ukraine manage in winter and we’ll hear from the European Consumers Organisation too.
