The European Commission is assessing ways to support the availability and affordability of transportation fuels. This is a significant concern for many citizens and has a broad impact on the economy, according to EU Energy Commissioner Dan Jorgensen. He stated that temporary and targeted support measures are necessary for the most affected sectors of society and the economy, amidst the energy crisis triggered by the Middle East crisis.
Jorgensen urged governments to utilize fiscal flexibility for clean energy investments, warning against wasting public funds on counterproductive measures. He also noted that despite the conflict in Iran, there is no immediate risk to Europe's energy supply, but high prices persist.
