LNG_GW_Plan de travail 1

One of the main ways that the EU can reduce its dependency on Russian gas is to import higher volumes of liquefied natural gas (LNG), alongside other measures such as increasing the share of renewable energy, increasing the energy efficiency of products, and maximising gas storage capacities.Spain is the country with the most LNG supplies, but it cannot easily export this to the rest of the EU because of the lack of interconnection capacity with France. A better geographical distribution of LNG terminals and improved interconnection capacity between Member States are a prerequisite for strengthening Europe’s security of gas supply, while diversifying the source of pipeline supplies can also contribute towards energy security.
