There are still serious obstacles to overcome before the benefits of an EU Energy Union can be realised

EU leaders have agreed on a blueprint for an ‘Energy Union’ aimed at improving the security and sustainability of Europe’s energy supply, as well as the competitiveness of the EU’s energy market. Joseph Dutton writes on the key features of the proposed Energy Union. He notes that despite a framework being outlined, there is still a lack of detail on how the Energy Union will function, and its success will depend to a large extent on the political will of actors at both the national and European levels.
