National Pathways

The EU Gas Exit Project has developed National Gas Exit Pathways and narratives for nine EU countries in Central and Southeastern Europe that are particularly dependent on gas from Russia and so far rely on fossil gas as a “bridge fuel” in their energy transition planning. Each national pathway features detailed information on the methodology and assumptions for the scenario modelling, as well as key results for the energy, industry and buildings sectors.

National Gas Exit Pathways

The national gas exit pathways were developed by Agora Energiewende, Artelys, Wuppertal Institute and TEP Energy in collaboration with the national think tank and research partners in each of the focus countries. The national partners helped to review and stress-test the modelling of the research consortium, and develop robust gas phase-out narratives for each country.

National partners

The project was carried out in cooperation with national think tank and research partners in nine Central and Southeast European countries particularly dependent on the import of Russian fossil gas, to help inform the EU-27 pathway, as well as develop national fossil gas phase-out pathways and sector deep dives for industry and buildings.
