Since 2021, energy prices in Europe have been surging as part of a global trend.

The restrictions aimed to curb imports of Russian gas and the global energy markets, resulting in skyrocketing prices. Rising inflation and cost-of-living crises forced European governments to resort to contingency measures.Record-high energy prices and the switch to puchase US LNG – which is more expensive that Russian supplies – also caused a major blow for European industry.
