IEA’s Claude Mandil Says Energy Security No Longer A Major Concern

Claude Mandil of the IEA says energy security is no longer a major concern:

“I don’t think security of supply is worse now than it was 30 years
ago for several reasons. The first is that energy as a whole plays a lesser
role in the economy. Second, generally, there are more alternative solutions–
that means energy coming from difference countries, different origins,
different suppliers or different kinds of fuels to obtain the same result,”
Mandil said.
