Small changes in our energy usage can also have a positive impact.

When paired with efficiency measures, they can impact prices and reduce our energy bills.

With #REPowerEU Plan, we are also setting up contingency measures in case of severe energy supply disruptions.

Russian fossil fuel imports cost European taxpayers nearly €100 billion per year.

To achieve our independence from Russian fossil fuel imports, we need 210€ billion of additional investment by 2027.

This is a smart investment in our security and independence.
