With every country largely controlling its own energy policy, Europe’s energy market has become inefficient and excessively dependent on Russian supplies. To the extent that there has been an EU-wide energy strategy, it has related to renewables, rather than the intersection of geopolitics and energy security.
进一步制约欧洲效率的是其在确保能源供给方面的各自为政。各个国家大体上都控制着本国的能源政策，欧洲能源市场变得效率低下，过度依赖俄罗斯的供给。泛欧盟能源政策是存在的，但是关于可再生能源而非地缘政治和能源安全互动的。
