The whole European Union is preparing for emergency situations and power cuts. There is a great uncertainty about gas, electricity, and oil pricing, and to some extent also supply in the coming winter. Euro zone inflation hits record numbers. With some EU countries already in recession, inflation creeping up to double digit numbers and Russian aggression in Ukraine continuing – will there be a cure, or at least a cold medicine against the energy bottlenecks in order to get over the winter, and how? 

Join us and learn more about experts’ views on energy markets and the related economics explained by companies and experts in the energy sector. 

The event is organized by the Finland-Lithuania Business Association for a wider audience this time.
