Can Europe Weather Another Winter Without Russian Gas?
This winter, much like the past two, Europe is facing the prospect of warmth[ with forecasts indicating a colder, more demanding season.
Although Europe has thus far weathered the loss of Russian gas imports – successfully meeting its energy needs – the stage

What are the long-term challenges that Europe faces in becoming independent of Russian gas, despite its efforts to diversify its energy sources?
## Can Europe Weather Another Winter Without Russian Gas?
**Interviewer:** Welcome to the show. Joining us today is [Guest Expert Name], an energy analyst specializing in European markets. Winter is upon us again, and many are wondering if Europe can withstand another season without Russian gas. What’s your take?
**Guest Expert:** Thanks for having me. It’s certainly true that Europe had a relatively mild winter last year, which helped avoid energy shortages. This year, however, forecasts suggest a colder season ahead, putting more pressure on the energy grid.
**Interviewer:** So, are we staring down the barrel of potential rationing this winter?
**Guest:** The risk is certainly lower compared to last year. Europe has been actively diversifying its energy sources, securing LNG shipments from Asia, for instance. As noted in a recent Fortune article [[1](https://fortune.com/2024/11/23/europe-energy-crisis-natural-gas-prices-russia-ukraine-war-vladimir-putin/), higher prices in Europe compared to Asia have helped attract these crucial supplies.
**Interviewer:** That’s reassuring. Aren’t there still concerns about the long-term stability of these alternative supplies, though?
**Guest:** Absolutely. Europe still needs to invest heavily in renewable energy sources and improve energy efficiency to truly become independent of Russian gas in the long run. This winter might be manageable, but the underlying challenges remain.
**Interviewer:** Thank you for your insights, [Guest Expert Name]. We appreciate you shedding light on this important issue.
**Guest:** My pleasure.
