Europe’s energy crisis
14.10.2022Company: Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft Filiale Prag, organizační složka
Europe is in the middle of an energy crisis. It’s grappling with two big challenges at the moment – urgently weaning itself off Russian energy, particularly gas, and moving to a cleaner energy economy. At times, those two goals seem to be in opposition to each other.
What we discuss
- What is the European response? There has been a patchwork of national support measures and three milestone packages.
- Will there be enough gas over winter? Probably yes, but it will be a balancing act. Household consumption will need to be closely monitored as the weather gets colder.
- What about the phasing out of Russian gas completely - is that possible?
- What are the challenges of the broader energy transformation? There is a lack of financing and constraints at the corporate and the household level.
- What are the challenges with transitioning to renewables? Is hydrogen the solution?

But we see 10 reasons why this will take longer than expected.
