[PDF]

The Zbigniew Brzezinski Chair in Global Security and Geopolitics at CSIS launched the Global Dialogue between the European Union and the United States in early 2008. The project examines five broad issues that represent serious challenges for the states of the Euro-Atlantic community but lend themselves especially well to ever-closer relations, consultation, and cooperation between the European Union and the United States. The present report addresses the risks of energy scarcity and strategies for sustainable energy security. Specifically, it reviews the key characteristics of energy markets, recent European and U.S. policy developments, and transatlantic actions to achieve energy security.
