Mr Jakub M. Godzimirski, Research Professor at NUPI (NO)
Outline
• What is energy interdependence - the broad European picture
• Recent history of energy interdependence in the Baltic Sea region
• 2015 study on energy security in the Baltic Sea region (2012 data)
• What has changed since 2015?
• What to expect in the near future?
Economic interdependence: broad picture
EU-Russia energy interdependence
The EU shares in Russian oil, petroleum products and gas exports
Share of revenues generated by energy sector in the revenues of the Russian state budget and share of social and military/security spendings (Russian Ministry of Finance data quoted by RBK 2016)
Key energy data for BSR countries

Electricity trade in the Baltic Sea region 2013
Electricity connections 2016 (ENTSO)
Recent developments• Energy Union – greater co-ordination of the EU energy policy?
• NordStream 2 initiative and countermeasures
• LNG terminals• FSRU Klaipeda in Lithuania opened in 2014
• Gazprom’s initial offer was 19 euros/MWh (approximately 200 euros for 1,000 m3)• Statoil’s offer (renegotiated) was between 16 and 20 euros/MWh (approximately 169–211
euros for 1,000 m3.• The possibility to diversify gas supplies through the LNG terminal not only assures gas supplies but
is also a real, market-driven element of putting other suppliers – in this case Gazprom under pressure.
• LNG terminal in Swinoujscie, Poland opened in 2015• LNG supplies from Qatar, with new contract increasing the level of supplies signed in 2017
• New interconnectors, or the end of the ‘Baltic energy island’• Gas – GIPL • Electricity – SWEDLIT, LITPOL
Plans for the future• Climate – energy nexus?
• National, regional and European Energiewende?
• NordStream 2
• The Northern Gate / Baltic Pipe project• North-South Corridor
• Other LNG terminals• Second LNG/FSRU terminal in Poland?• LNG terminals in Latvia, Estonia and Finland?
• New interconnectors and reverse capacity in the region• Gas• Electricity
• Closing down of nuclear power plants in Germany by 2022
• New nuclear power plants in the region• Belarus• Russia• Finland• Poland• Lithuania
Reasons and targets for German Energiewende
Gas as a transition fuel especially in power generation sector?

What makes Norwegian gas a preferable solution for Europe and the Baltic Sea Region?
1. Norway shares norms and values with all members of the European Union and is de facto a European insider through its ‘membership’ in the EEA.
2. Norway is a predictable democracy and co-operation with Norway is therefore not bound with any strategic and political risks, not least due to the fact that Norwegian policy-makers have been consistently pursuing the policy of non-politicising their energy supplies.
3. Supplies of gas from Norway to Europe do not run the risk of disruption by transit countries as Norwegian gas reaches Europe directly.
4. Being a member of the transatlantic alliance Norway shares a strategic vision and concerns with all its European gas customers and is often viewed as a source of politically safe energy.
5. Geographical proximity to markets in the Baltic Sea Region

• Judicial instruments prescribe desired behavior and setnorms and as such influence behaviour of actors bymaking them understand what is desired and acceptedand what is not. If they comply and play by the rules,actors can expect reward, if they don’t – they have toexpect a kind of punishment or sanction.
• Economic instruments aim to influence financialconsiderations of actors, providing economic incentives tothose who accommodate Russian interests and de-incentivizing those who could oppose realization ofRussian plans.
• Communicative instruments transfer knowledge for thepurpose of informing, persuading, convincing or tempting.These instruments can also be combined with and supportother types of instruments. They often create socialsupport and increase awareness.
• Infrastructural, physical instruments that can be used inorder to promote Russian interests can for instanceinclude construction of various elements of physicalenergy infrastructure or actions aimed at the existinginfrastructure in order to change its physical and marketparameters and render it either useful or useless to otheractors.
