THE EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Boosting EU Competitiveness with Digitalisation of Energy

The EU faces the same energy trilemma it did three years ago: affordability, security, and sustainability. The momentum on the green and digital transition as the accelerator to address these challenges – and EU’s competitiveness – must remain, in particular as we face the third year of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Now more than ever, digitalisation is essential to derisk, decarbonise, optimise and secure Europe’s energy system. Achieving these goals requires electrification, modernised energy infrastructure that can withstand cyberattacks
and greater integration of renewable energy.
