“…As a result, we may conclude that in the conceptual evolution presented above, the long-term aspects inherent in governing with turbulence rather than against it, are becoming increasingly more significant. As discussed above, the example of the ongoing dilemma in EU-Russia relations (Goldthau & Sitter, 2020) illustrates this conclusion. At various instances of crisis onset, we have witnessed a response through EU policy that seemed to reprioritize the traditional element of security of energy supply.…”

This article presents a theoretical approach to energy security. It incorporates the concept of governing through turbulence as both a response to crisis onset and a source of long-term policy adaptation. The article applies this framework to an empirical analysis of the energy and climate policy of the EU through a review of policy documents in the period between 1995 and 2020. The article presents the evolution in the conceptualization of energy security in EU policy from a narrow definition restricted to characteristics of energy supply to an expanded conception that integrates additional elements from associated policy areas. The article argues that the European Green Deal represents the culmination of this process and concludes that the convergence of energy and climate policy objectives reinforces the trend towards the widened conceptual scope of energy security.

“…Interconnection, however, also presents risks, as electricity cut‐offs could become a foreign policy tool (Johansson, 2013; Moore, 2017; Smith Stegen, 2018). Furthermore, actions in one part of the grid—such as power outages—could immediately affect others (Scholten & Bosman, 2016; Smith Stegen et al., 2012).…”

“…However, while the share of renewables in electricity is progressing fast, its share in total final consumption decreased considerably over the past decade, given the expanding energy demand. To meet the challenges, the government of the country adopted an ambitious energy policy relative to the renewable energy sector, which includes targets to increase their participation in the domestic generated electricity, while the operation of both wind farms, as well as solar thermal power plants has increased [69]. The country has also made good use of the best available technologies in its large-scale concentrated solar power (CSP) projects, and pioneers innovative hybrid solutions, with photovoltaic and thermal solar storage [70].…”

An AHP-SWOT-Fuzzy TOPSIS Approach for Achieving a Cross-Border RES Cooperation

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The emerging need to tackle climate change and mitigate greenhouse gas emissions has led to the consolidation of interest in renewable energy sources (RES) setting specific targets in the European area. To achieve the ambitious targets set, Member States are given the opportunity to cooperate with one or more of their developing neighboring countries. The aim of this paper is to develop a methodological framework based on the combination of the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) analysis with the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Fuzzy Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (Fuzzy TOPSIS) methods for adopting the most appropriate strategic plan, in order to establish a successful energy cooperation that will create beneficial conditions for all the involved parties. The results could be important in facilitating decision makers to assess the role and design of this cooperation mechanism. Key insights will also emerge with regards to opportunities for energy strategy cooperation between Europe and its neighboring countries.
