Present yesterday, 10 November 2025, at the Florence School of Regulation (FSR), the President of the International Gas Union (IGU), Mr Andrea Stegher, took part in a debate on Europe’s energy security of supply with representatives from the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) and The European Network of Transmission System Operators for Gas (ENTSOG) and the Oxford Institute of Energy Studies (OIES).
The debate on “Security of Supply” formed part of FSR’s 3-day specialised training on the Regulation of Gas Markets, targeted at leading Gas industry experts and practitioners.
As global Gas markets undergo profound transformation, driven by geopolitical shifts, decarbonisation imperatives, and rapidly evolving regulatory landscapes, the need for informed and strategic decision-making has never been greater.
The IGU President remarked: ”While some may perceive that European security of supply is less of an issue three years after the 2022 crisis, we have to continue investing in Gas resources and infrastructure to promote resilience of energy supplies both for the already well developed markets – where Gas plays an increasingly essential flexibility role to balance the power systems while continuing to heat homes and providing essential molecules to industries – and in developing countries where Gas will play an essential role in eradicating energy poverty”.
