3 Tools for Quantifying Energy Security: Institute for 21 st Century Energy (1) Index of U.S. Energy Security Risk: Assessing America's Vulnerabilities in a Global Energy Market: annual energy risk indicator uses quantifiable data, historical trend information, and government projections retrospective look from 1970 to nowadays, and prospectively from nowadays to 30 years ahead International Index of Energy Security Risk (IIESR): new tool (started in 2012) to help better understand and assess international energy markets 75 countries (top energy users), 8 metric groups, 28 index values Only historical data (back to 1980), no projections
4 Tools for Quantifying Energy Security: Institute for 21 st Century Energy (2) IIESR metrics used to rank 75 countries: global fuel reserves fuel imports national energy expenditure price and market volatility energy use intensity reliability of electricity generation efficiency of the transport sector environmental factors

6 Common Energy Security Vulnerabilities (1) Energy expenditure Energy efficiency and intensity Market volatility Fossil fuel import exposure and dependence Fossil fuel import expenditure to GDP intensity CO2 to GDP intensity
7 Common Energy Security Vulnerabilities (2) Positive results/developments: Coal import exposure (100% below average OECD risk levels) Electricity capacity diversity (72% below average OECD risk levels) CO 2 emissions trend (48% below average OECD risk levels) Transport energy per capita (42% below average OECD risk levels) Energy consumption per capita (42% below average OECD risk levels) Retail electricity prices (31% below average OECD risk levels) CO 2 per capita (30% below average OECD risk levels) Main energy security challenges: Energy expenditure volatility (3180% above average OECD risk levels) Energy expenditure intensity (855% above average OECD risk levels) Fossil fuel import expenditure per GDP (377% above average OECD risk levels) CO2 GDP intensity (370% above average OECD risk levels) Energy intensity (289% above average OECD risk levels) Petroleum intensity (252% above average OECD risk levels) Transport energy intensity (197% above average OECD risk levels) Gas import exposure (134% above average OECD risk levels)

18 EU Involvement EU s Neighborhood Policy EU s three pillars of energy policy Competitiveness Security of energy supply Sustainable development Inconsistent policy implementation leading to: Major project completion failure Loss of the strategic focus Incoherent and fragmented regional approach Bureaucratic stalling
19 US Involvement US-Russia reset Official foreign policy and local representation Corporate involvement Technological leadership
20 Energy Security in the Black Sea Region: Possible Strategies Import diversification External technology leadership (role of US) Introduction of a EU Energy Union Regional approaches: Investment in regional gas interconnectors Restarting Nabucco via a North-South link Promotion of LNG supply from the Middle East and North Africa
