Peter Kaderjak | Director of the Regional Centre for Energy Policy Research, talks to the Director of the Florence School of Regulation Jean-Michel Glachant about Gas Security of Supply after his participation on the panel ‘Going beyond national borders: is it really that difficult?’ Recorded at ‘External Energy Security and Policy: Power and Gas Aspects’, 5 October 2015, Vienna, Austria, organised by E-Control and Florence School of Regulation. http://fsr.eui.eu/Events/ENERGY/Workshop/2015/150703ExternalEnergySecurityandPolicyPowerandGasAspects.aspx “We are the only region with the perspective of declining production.” “The external question is to what extent are our outside suppliers reliable and at what cost they provide the gas. The good news is that there are several outside suppliers who are becoming new ones in the European market, potently the US is there. The bad news is that you still have problems with the potential reliability of the outside suppliers, with Russia you never know and the north African supply has decreased substantially. “We have abundant gas around Europe but we still have a lot of internal problems in the European system.” “Each member state should do it’s homework to analyse it’s supply security situation.”
