German Vice Chancellor and Economy Minister Robert Habeck is visiting countries that produce liquefied natural gas (LNG) to try to mitigate Germany’s dependence on Russian energy.
Habeck’s first trip to Oslo is reportedly a success that both sides are considering building a hydrogen pipeline linking Germany and Norway.
Energy experts say the move needs building port terminals for LNG as Germany has now vowed to do in its port towns usually takes at least five years.
55% of the natural gas, 52% of the coal and 34% of mineral oil used in Germany comes from Russia.
German chancellor, Olaf Scholz, has frozen the Nord Stream 2 pipeline as part of sanctions against Russia.
But officials, meanwhile, warned that an immediate ban on Russian gas and oil supplies could hurt Germany’s own population.
For both Germany and the EU, their search for alternative sources of energy or short-term solutions still has a long way to go.
