    The US wants central and eastern European countries to join its path of “energy freedom” instead of following the wider region’s transition to a net zero economy, Energy Secretary Chris Wright said in Warsaw.

    ...

    “Central Europe faces a time for choosing,” Wright told conference participants. “We warmly welcome you to join us on Team Energy Freedom and Prosperity for Citizens.”

    ...

    “In fact, the clarion conclusion from economic studies of climate change is that net zero 2050 is absolutely the wrong goal,” he said. “Not only is it unachievable, but the blind pursuit of it will cause, is causing far more human damage than climate change itself.”

    President Trump has repeatedly called on Europe to buy more American energy products if the bloc wants to avoid tariffs.

      Ignoring the self serving bullshit of the US.This seems so nuts, even all the capitalistic incentives point to renewables plus batteries for the future. Besides who in Eastern Europe wants to change from one energy dictator to the next. I can't see this being a succes in the long run.

        It's just some capitalists fighting other capitalists. The renewable ones are still the weaker though.

          So the cyber attack that caused the Spanish outage came from the US?
          They liked it when they were asked to ship some lgp to Europe ?

            There's zero evidence the Spanish power outage was caused by a cyber attack, that's just fear mongering.

              I know, and everyone is now acting like they were the hacker/cracker of the year saying "it was me, it was me!" .
              I wish it were a cyber attack actually, cause it's not nice that it can happen to anyone. For sure it was not a cut cable accident, so it was a big mistake .
              I was thinking also of a possible power surge coming from solar plants due to the sudden summertime we're experiencing
