Abstract

Following the 1970s oil crises, transatlantic energy cooperation focused on stabilising global oil prices. In past decades, however, interests diverged as Europe prioritised sustainability. Because of wide-ranging recent developments, dramatic changes have occurred around the world in how energy is produced, transported and consumed. Based on interviews with US experts, we assess transatlantic convergence and divergence in this new environment and prospects for cooperation. Contrary to conventional wisdom, US experts are concerned about climate change and appear to be softening towards Russia, although they still encourage Europe to develop shale gas, a southern supply corridor, and an internal energy market.
