Energy Security In The Transition To A Green Economy: Challenges And Strategies

Authors : Moumen Aouatef .

Abstract

Decarbonizing the energy sector improves public health, environment, and climate goals, but raises concerns about energy security due to reliance on renewable sources and vital minerals. Analyzing the green transition's effect on energy security—especially availability, affordability, and sustainability—highlights essential strategies. This transition introduces challenges like mineral dependence, supply variability, investment needs, regulatory alignment, and geopolitical risks. Key measures include diversifying technologies, strengthening infrastructure, ensuring market stability, and encouraging global cooperation. While conflicts between climate goals and energy security may exist, they can be resolved by developing adaptable security measures in a low-carbon framework, focusing on coordinated policies to lessen greenhouse gas emissions.
