Washington Calls Out Europe’s Energy Fantasy

  • In 2025, U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright spoke at a major Central European conference, condemning Europe’s centralized climate policies and advocating for a focus on affordable, reliable energy through greater energy independence.
  • Wright linked Europe's strategy to net-zero emissions, rising energy costs, and deindustrialization following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine and emphasized prioritizing affordability and reliability.
  • He urged Central Europe to choose 'energy freedom' supported by natural gas and nuclear power, citing their affordability and reliability over renewables alone.
  • Wright emphasized that over the next several decades, the primary approaches to addressing climate issues will remain the same as they have been in the past twenty years: relying on natural gas and nuclear energy, because these sources are effective.
  • He argued that Europe's pursuit of a net-zero policy limits consumer energy options and may harm the economy, whereas the U.S. Advocates for a strategy focused on greater energy independence and economic well-being for its people.
