Theme Session 2023: Energy supply at a time of uncertainty.
Europe is going through an energy crisis, which is high on the agenda in all the Nordic countries. One of the major causes is the security situation in the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The Nordic Region faces the “trilemma” of balancing security of supply with sustainability and prices. Official Nordic co-operation seeks to improve security of supply while maintaining an approach to energy that is sustainable, financially fair and in line with the vision of the Nordic Region as the world’s most sustainable and integrated region in 2030.
Several of the Nordic energy markets are closely interlinked, so it is a good idea to discuss the topic at Nordic level.
The Theme Session and the regular Annual Session in October/November are the two occasions when all 87 parliamentarians on the Nordic Council gather to debate and make decisions in plenary.
