Energy Security

« Back to Glossary Index

Energy security refers to the ability of a country or region to ensure a continuous, affordable and sustainable energy supply. In the context of clean energy, this concept emphasises the importance of diversifying energy sources, particularly through the transition to renewables, in order to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and mitigate associated risks such as price volatility and geopolitical conflict. Tackling misinformation in this area is about making it clear that the transition to clean energy does not jeopardise energy security, but rather strengthens it by reducing dependence on global fossil fuel volatility and the effects of climate change.
