European Union without immediate risk of gas supply despite low reserves

The European Union does not face an immediate risk to gas supply security, despite storage levels being below those recorded in previous years, the European Commission reported. The Commission's Directorate-General for Energy indicated that, although gas storage levels are lower than in previous years, the Member States and the European Commission consider that there is no immediate risk to gas supply security in the EU at this time. This assessment comes in a context of concern about the evolution of gas reserve levels on the European continent. The European Commission continues to monitor the situation in coordination with the Member States to guarantee the region's energy security.
