How did Europe get rid of its dependence on Russian energy in just one year?

Europe has achieved a remarkable milestone in its energy landscape by significantly reducing its dependence on Russian energy sources within just one year. The European Union's reliance on Russian fossil fuels, including oil, natural gas, and coal, has historically dominated the energy market. However, recent geopolitical tensions and energy crises, such as the Russia-Ukraine conflict, prompted Europe to pursue a transformative energy strategy. Notably, Germany, as the EU leader, has taken substantial steps towards energy independence, announcing on January 1st that it would completely halt the import of Russian oil, natural gas, and coal.

While this significant achievement primarily pertains to Germany, it is important to acknowledge the collective efforts of other European countries as well. The European Union, as a whole, has witnessed a decline in its dependency on Russian energy, with natural gas imports from Russia dropping to below 25%. The EU has diversified its energy sources by increasing imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the United States, Nigeria, and Qatar, as well as pipeline natural gas from Norway and Algeria.

To accelerate the transition to renewable energy and achieve energy independence, the European Union has set ambitious targets. By 2030, the EU aims to increase the share of renewable energy to 45% and raise the proportion of renewable energy in the power sector to 69%. Germany, in particular, has set an even more ambitious target, aiming for 100% green electricity supply by 2035, with renewable energy accounting for 80% of its overall energy mix.
