We reduced our dependency on Russian gas by three-quarters.
We have diversified our supply by working with reliable partners, such as Norway and the US to fill our gas storage up to 95% ahead of last winter.

The green transition is already underway.
Last year we doubled the additional deployment of renewable energy in the EU. And for the first time, we generated more electricity from wind and sun than from gas.

We launched an EU Energy Platform to pool our demand for gas and bring down prices.
The first tender of joint gas purchasing has been a success, with bids from reliable international suppliers to supply more than 13.4 billion cubic metres of gas.

We can overcome any crisis with unity and solidarity.
Everyone has contributed to cutting our gas consumption by 18%, well above our target of 15% set last July. This has helped us get through the winter safely.
