Abstract:
The Strait of Hormuz closure intensifies natural-gas-related energy risks for Europe, triggering a new set of energy trilemmas. By contemplating several scenarios, we argue that natural-gas supplier diversification after the 2022 energy crisis is unlikely to resolve underlying energy-system vulnerability, whereas structural shifts toward renewables is crucial.
