Abstract

The promotion of new energy technology, environmental considerations, economic stimulation, and the creation of new industries and jobs have led industrialized nations to include the expansion of these energy sources in their development plans. Europe, in particular, should be more sensitive to developments in the energy sector and adopt comprehensive plans and strategies to enhance energy security. This research relies on futurology principles and planning tools to address the future of renewable and new energies in the global market and provide solutions for improved energy security. The main question is: What are the key European strategies to solve energy security issues? What are the primary problems related to energy supply security for European consumers? The findings indicate that Europe's energy supply security is at serious risk due to the dependence on oil and gas imports from Russia and the oil embargoes by countries like Iran and Venezuela. European strategies include strengthening international institutions, using alternative fossil energy sources, diversifying the oil and gas import portfolio, joint investments in oil and gas with importers, and utilizing gas pipelines. Given Iran's strategic location and importance in global oil and gas resources, it is a viable option for reducing Europe's energy security risks.
