Activity under preparation State and Resilience Building Contract in the Energy Sector RS2023AAP-ESP Energy prices in Europe began rising steeply in 2021 following the lifting of the pandemic lockdowns, followed by further price increased due to Russia¿s war of aggression against Ukraine in 2022. The war upended energy markets, triggering heightened price volatility and energy insecurity impacting the EU and its immediate neighbourhood. The rise in energy prices rapidly contributed to already rising inflation and impacted consequently other sectors as well, like manufacturing, transport and all service sectors in general, as well as the costs of households.&nbsp;This crisis has forced the European Commission to refocus its immediate response, through a set of short-term energy security-related measures, in Europe and beyond, as set out in the REPowerEU plan[1] and its EU external energy strategy[2] and as reiterated by the President of the European Commission in her State of the European Union address.&nbsp;The current energy crisis is unprecedented, and it is a challenge for not only the EU Member States but also for the Western Balkans partners. The EU and the Western Balkans partners need to work hand in hand to increase the energy security as a matter of urgency.&nbsp;Against this background, the privileged relationship of the Western Balkans, has allowed to extend to the Region several initiatives that were taken in the EU in the last months.&nbsp;For instance, as immediate response to the energy crisis at EU level several actions focus on the gas sector. Under the mandate of the European Council, the European Commission and the EU Member States work together on establishing a voluntary EU energy purchase platform for gas and hydrogen, which enables countries to team up to secure affordable energy supplies from reliable partners. Those efforts are accompanied by supporting measures: international outreach to current and potential gas exporters, and regional and pan-EU work streams for ensuring the most efficient use of the existing infrastructure under new patterns of gas flows. This work will also serve as a basis for the development of the global hydrogen market.&nbsp;The European Commission has invited the Western Balkans to join the platform for joint purchases of gas to lower the dependency on Russian gas. The regional platform for South East Europe has prepared a detailed action plan outlining quick measures needed to accurately assess the gas demand and infrastructure potential in the region. Serbia and North Macedonia have participated in this discussion (all IPA III Western Balkans were invited). It should be noted that currently only three of the Western Balkans have gas infrastructure (Serbia, North Macedonia and Bosnia and Herzegovina).
