Abstract

In response to the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine, the European Union (EU) has taken short-, medium- and long-term measures in the area of energy policy. They address both the goal of security of supply and sustainability. In doing so, the EU makes partial use of the possibilities of the emergency measures of Article 122 Treaty on the Functioning of the EU for such crisis situations. This has two consequences. On the one hand, the EU is thus creating a legitimacy deficit for itself. On the other hand, it can use this approach to overcome limitations in energy policy due to a lack of competences and to further advance the Green Deal despite the war-related focus on energy security.
