Global energy governance is occurring in a multipolar world characterised by a growing demand for energy. The EU as well as the emerging powers of Brazil, China, India and South Africa (BICS) are competing for scarce energy resources. At the same time, the EU and BICS are engaged in bilateral energy talks. This volume explores mutual perceptions of the EU and emerging powers in terms of energy governance, the challenges involved in them cooperating over energy, and the joint governance of scarce resources. Results are gathered from elite discourse as well as media analyses, including the views from BICS, the EU and the EU's "Big 3" member states Germany, France and the UK.

"Since the mid-2000s, the European Union has made unprecedented strides toward the creation of a common energy policy. This book takes stock of these developments, evaluating how much progress has actually been made and what remains to be done, what factors explain these recent advances and their limitations, and what obstacles stand in the way of establishing a truly common EU energy policy. Chapters by experts on different aspects of EU and European energy policy address the full range of relevant topics, including each important policy area, the perspectives of critical EU member states, and how much recent developments contribute to the achievement of the traditional goals of energy policy."-- "Toward an EU Energy Policy: Problems, Progress, and Prospects provides a timely and comprehensive overview of the most recent developments in EU energy and climate policy. With up-to date empirical analysis by more than a dozen leading experts and scholars from both Europe and the United States, this volume offers the most definitive assessment of this significant area of European integration and policymaking. Separate chapters address key issue areas, the policies of the leading EU members states, and themes that cut across policy and institutional boundaries"--

This book fills an important gap in the literature on energy security in the gas sector in the European Union. Whilst the emphasis is often on energy security in the oil sector, the gas sector has grown in importance in recent decades, with increasing liberalization raising critical questions for the security of gas supplies. The share of gas in Europe's energy mix is rising and the differences between the politics and economics of gas and oil supply are becoming more pronounced. The author sheds light on the state of EU energy security in the gas sector, its interdependence with external suppliers and the current gas strategy. He examines the role of energy companies, EU member-states and EU institutions, locates the main developments in the gas sector and focuses on the principal challenges posed by such fundamental changes. The author scrutinizes the EU's relations with its main gas supplier, Russia, as well as with alternative suppliers, elaborates on the key infrastructure projects on the table and their principal ramifications, and discusses the main policies that member-states pursue to achieve energy security as well as the EU's internal contradictions. The book concludes with policy recommendations, particularly in the light of tougher environmental regulation.
