sharp rise in energy prices<\/h4><p>The Trump-Netanyahu attacks on Iran have unleashed a war in the Middle East which causes <strong>the biggest shock to the European energy supply since the Russian invasion of Ukraine<\/strong>.<\/p><p>The announced ceasefire has so far failed to bring any real relief. The situation around the Strait of Hormuz remains fragile, shipping continues to be at risk, and there is no sign of any sustained fall in prices.<\/p><p>The war clearly shows how dependent Europe still is on the import of fossil fuels, often from autocratic regimes. This dependence affects us directly at the petrol pump, on our heating bills and in industry.<\/p><p>Since the outbreak of the war, all of us in the EU together have spent <b>about 14 billion Euros more on the import of fossil fuels<\/b>, on top of the annual 400 billion Euros spent.

No one knows how long this situation will last. Meanwhile, pressure is mounting on the European Commission from governments and industry to act quickly on rising energy prices.<\/p><p>For the Greens\/EFA in the European Parliament, the priority is clear: any short-term relief must go hand in hand with accelerating the shift to renewable energy, improving energy efficiency, and reducing dependence on fossil fuels.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-980b280 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"980b280\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4>EU measures must finally free us from energy dependence<\/h4><p>So far, most of the <a href=\"https:\/\/blue-sea-697d.quartiers047.workers.dev:443\/https\/www.energymarketprice.com\/home\/en\/news\/1178200\">proposed measures<\/a>, like lowering the price of carbon emissions or price caps, miss the mark. They are largely designed to shield big, energy-intensive industries, while offering only limited relief to vulnerable households and small businesses: the very people who need support the most. At the same time, the focus remains too narrow, short-term and conventional. Plus, they do not take into account innovative practices such as citizen energy communities &#8211; championed by the Greens\/EFA &#8211; which give back power to the people.\u00a0<\/p><p>By concentrating on immediate price fixes, the European Commission risks ignoring the real root of the crisis: Europe\u2019s ongoing dependence on imported fossil fuels.<\/p><h4>Fossil fuel companies make record profits in crisis while we struggle to pay our bills<\/h4><p>And there is a deeper injustice at play. <b>While we struggle to pay our bills, fossil fuel giants are making record profits<\/b>.
