The European Union was established primarily to ensure a steady supply of affordable energy. The devastating effects of the Treaty of Versailles and the ensuing Second World War highlighted the importance of abundant energy in promoting peace and unity among nations. For more than six decades, the EU has successfully achieved this goal. However, a recent shift towards 'green' energy has led to energy insecurity and fuel poverty for many EU citizens. This misguided approach has put businesses of all sizes at risk as they struggle to compete with countries that prioritise affordable energy. This book critically assesses the EU's remarkable achievements over the past 60 years, as well as the regrettable setbacks of the past decade. The author, who has devoted his career to the subject, provides an unflinching analysis that serves as a call to return to the original vision of abundant and affordable energy. In doing so, the EU can move forward towards a prosperous and sustainable future.
